Abstract
A system and method for maximizing the use of threads in a file server process for processing requests received from entities on a network. The file server process includes a first socket and a plurality of second sockets for receiving requests from entities on a network. The file server process comprises a first queue for storing requests received from the first socket, and a second queue for storing requests received from the plurality of second sockets. The file server processes the requests in the first queue with a first set of threads, and processes the requests in the second queue with a second set of threads.
