Answer / Neeraj Umar
Context switching between threads is generally faster than context switching between processes because threads share the same memory space and have smaller contexts to switch. Context switching for threads primarily involves saving and restoring thread-specific registers, while process context switches require saving and restoring the entire processor state.
