Open Stack

Hi Chris,



They appear to be processes when I see it in htop. I have attached the screenshot of a VM named "instance-000001bf" that has 4 virtual cores. In total, I can see 6 processes for the above referred VM.

Can I know is there a way to differentiate between  processes and threads?



Best regards,

Krishnaprasad

Are they separate processes or separate threads?  Separate threads would be expected, but separate processes would not be.
