Answer Posted / vinod
What if T1 waits for some resource -- Let it be some Input
from keyboard. When T1 is in the wait state, T2 and T3 can
be completed hence utilizing the waiting time. If it was a
single process instead of 3 threads, then the code
equivalent of T2 and T3 will have to wait till code
equivalent of T1 is completed which is definitely a waste of
time.
