# `_hurd_sigstates`

[[!tag open_issue_glibc]]
In an [[hurd/translator/ext2fs]] instance with 1068 threads, `_hurd_sigstates`
was a linked with with 1067 entries, in one with 351 threads, 351 entries.  Is
this noticeable already?  Perhaps a different data structure is needed?
Though, a linked list is perfect for the common case of processes with only a
handful of threads.
