Simultaneous use of email + web server

[rs77can]

Is there any issue using the email library at the same time as a web server (and Modbus in my case). They are working on different ports, but I am wondering if there is any issue at the hardware level.

I am using them under mBed, so there is a chance that multithreading may result in one being interrupted by the other.

I can add a Mutex if there is an issue to prevent this, but only want to do so if necessary to avoid extra overhead.

Thanks

Hi rs77can,
I think there is the possibility that the webserver and email need a good quantity of RAM.
What are the specs of the MCU you use?

I am using a Portenta H7, so RAM is not an issue.

I have been using the AsyncWebServer for the Web Server, but in light of no more support for those libraries. I am trying to change the application to the standard arduino Ethernet libraries.

Just wanted to make sure there were no issues running them in parallel.

Thanks
