Be aware that some RTOSs doesn't have real threads, but task/processes. Therefore sharing socket descriptors between tasks can impose a problem (OmniORB is pretty socket intensive). I've never tried
LynxOS though, and you have probably thought of it already - any way...
64 MBytes is more than enough! We're running OmniORB 2.8 and a farely big app. (some 40.000 code lines) on just 2 MB RAM and 8 MB Flash memory.
