Is it really?

To clarify, LinuxThreads has one thread per process; IBM's NGPT has
multiple threads per process, but still multiple processes.  I was
under the impression that Solaris LWPs would have all threads in one
process.

(except of course the terminology gets fuzzy here.  One "process" in
Solaris includes multiple LWPs which can be executing at the same time. 
If my understanding above is correct it might be more appropriate to
call Solaris one-thread-per-LWP).
