I was playing around with this locally. I added some prints and noticed
the background thread was never binning. This was because the background
thread was never started (adding vial thread pool API will start it). I fixed
this issue by prestarting the threads, however I think it would be safer to
add using the Executor API (because threads could idle time out). I was
reading and found the following.
* ThreadPoolExecutor javadocs recommend only using the queue for debugging
and monitoring
* The same thing can be accomplished using
ThreadPoolExecutor.CallerRunsPolicy() and a SynchronousQueue()
I got .CallerRunsPolicy+SynchronousQueue working here
keith-turner/accumulo@bb28195
I made some modifications to BatchWriterFlushIT in
keith-turner/accumulo@3d3c252 . Running that I was able to see that sometimes
the background thread binned and sometimes the foreground thread binned.
