I might say spurious. They reflect that the mupdate on this machine starts 5 worker threads, and needs none.

That's normal, as the mupdate master blocks changes while a frontend is synchronizing. :wes ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
