Replace Blocking Executor with an EnhancedQueueExecutor ------------------------------------------------------- Key: ISPN-12029 URL: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/ISPN-12029 Project: Infinispan Issue Type: Enhancement Components: Core Reporter: Will Burns Assignee: Will Burns Priority: Major Fix For: 12.0.0.Final, 11.0.2.Final The blocking executor today uses a simple ThreadPoolExecutor. Unfortunately, this means that we will eventually start all configured threads (since core = max and we require a queue). Setting core size to less than max is not desirable as well as it will enqueue additional tasks rather than spawn a thread.   The EnhancedQueueExecutor does exactly what we want and also has some additional features. We should utilize this which will keep our blocking thread pool size down during times of less activity.
