I have read that they should be the same... boost::thread supports thread interruption, a feature not present in C++11. http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_48_0/doc/html/thread/thread_management.html#thread.thread_management.interruption A joinable boost::thread will detach automatically if it goes out of scope, a std::thread will call std::terminate. http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_48_0/doc/html/thread/thread_management.html#thread.thread_management.joining_and_detaching Boost provides a thread_group class. For more details you should probably ask on the Boost list, it's not really relevant to GCC.
