> I don't understand this at all. What problem does this solve, compared to simply calling the client from a virtual thread? Virtual threads let blocking HttpClient scale: thousands of concurrent requests without bloated platform threads. They avoid thread-pool exhaustion/tuning and keep the classic API—no rewrite to async. Best under latency/IO waits (DNS, TLS, slow servers): frees carriers, improves throughput and tail latency. Cheaper context switches and straight-line stack traces vs. async callback/Future pyramids. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
