Updating active selectors is not thread-safe so > precautions are required. > However, the current locking choreography results in a serialized > distribution of new connections to the parallel socket readers. A > slower/busier reader can stall the listener and throttle performance. > The problem manifests as unexpectedly low cpu utilization by the listener and > readers (~20-30%) under heavy load. The call queue is shallow when it should > be overflowing. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1#6144)
