             Summary: [Broker-J] Improper interuption of connection processing 
loop
                 Key: QPID-8534
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-8534
             Project: Qpid
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Broker-J
            Reporter: Marek Laca


The network connection scheduler (NetworkConnectionScheduler class) contains a 
thread pool. IO-threads are polling jobs from the scheduler work queue and 
executing them. The connection job works in the loop. The loop is interrupted 
when there is not any data to process or all IO-threads are occupied.

If the loop is interrupted then the IO-thread pushes the connection job back 
into the queue and picks the next job from the queue. It should ensure that any 
job is not abandoned and it is not waiting in the queue for ever.
But when the number of jobs equals to the thread pool size then IO-thread stops 
processing the connection job, pushes it back into the queue and polls the same 
job again, again and again.

The connection job could check whether is there any job in the scheduler queue. 
If the queue was not empty then the connection working loop would be 
interrupted and the thread could pick up another job. It would simplified the 
broker code significantly.
