Romain Manni-Bucau commented on CDI-710:
----------------------------------------

[~manovotn] didn't want to hurt anyone but literally was impossible to use in any app or PoC I did based on CDI 2.0 and can't think to real use cases - but demos - where dropping this API would hurt.

About OWB and ForkJoinPool.commonPool: the only reason it is used is to not create a dedicated pool by default (in standalone and EE) and try to just reuse what is here for low async usage (but true it assumes this pool will be used). In Servlet/EE case you add the fact the config would be highly vendor specific and not controllable JVM wide then commonPool was not a that bad choice for the default - at least as bad as a custom one.

> When running on a Java EE environment, CDI should use a managed executor service by default for asynchronous operations.
> This is already required by the JAX-RS 2.1 spec (http://download.oracle.com/otndocs/jcp/jaxrs-2_1-pfd-spec/index.html), section 5.8:
> {quote}In an environment that supports the Concurrency Utilities for Java EE [13], such as the Java EE Full Profile, implementations MUST use ManagedExecutorService and ManagedScheduledExecutorService, respectively. The reader is referred to the Javadoc of ClientBuilder for more information about executor services.{quote}
> Containers will presumably offer monitoring features and thread pool configuration options for managed executor services.
