Re: JVM CPU queueing

John,

I have used threads in Java while writing simulators for a robotics
company. I'm pleased that you downloaded the code from the article and
tested it. That shows your interest in Java's runtime characteristics.
While I too have an interest in the runtime characteristics of virtual
machines and similar environments, I feel that we may be doing a disservice
in this thread by bantering over minutia which is not relevant to the
original post. No matter what one's view of the interfaces provided by
java.util.concurrent
might be - they don't appear to be applicable to the original poster's
concerns.

Perhaps the most practical suggestions came from Dieter Bender:

- too many concurrent threads for too few cpus.
- too few activity levels in a subsystem.
