Netty worker thread starvation with events ------------------------------------------ Key: ISPN-6478 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-6478 Project: Infinispan Issue Type: Bug Components: Server Affects Versions: 8.2.1.Final Reporter: Galder Zamarreño Assignee: Galder Zamarreño Priority: Blocker Fix For: 9.0.0.Alpha4, 9.0.0.Final As a result of ISPN-6005, we decoupled the incoming Hot Rod server invocations from sending events by adding a intermediate queue that maintains the events to send to clients. However, this separation can lead to a Netty worker thread starvation issue since we add the events to the queue in Netty's IO thread, so if the queue is full, incoming requests are stuck.
