Mircea Markus commented on ISPN-3702:
-------------------------------------

makes sense. Would be good to have the thread pool factory configurable, to share the thread for your use case.

> When using multiple transactional caches, we are seeing that each cache has a dedicated cleanup thread. While this is not an issue for small number of caches, when the number of caches is high as in our case (~100), we see around a 100 threads dedicated for cleanup like the following.
