[jboss-dev] Thread pooling

[Bela Ban]

I can highly recommend the java.util.concurrent classes of JDK 5, I've 
been porting from concurrent.jar to them in JGroups for the last weeks, 
and I get performance optimizations of roughly 10%. Besides, I expect to 
scale much better on multi core machines, this requires some additional 
work on my behalf though, like lock striping, use of atomic updates 
rather than synchronization etc etc etc.

I can highly recommend Brian Goetz' book "Java Concurrency in Practice" 
which discusses the java.util.concurrent lib, but also presents tips and 
tricks on concurrent programming best practices in general
