In context of jtreg, as far as I can see, these threads will only get used when running the tests in agent vm mode. So the agent VM which is running as a separate process would be the one which will be launching these virtual threads. Did I understand it correctly? Furthermore, is this applicable for `othervm` mode in any way? ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/13432#issuecomment-1512468733
