---------------------------------
Summary: Job retries can create a large amount of Timers
Key: SLING-13044
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-13044
Project: Sling
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Event
Affects Versions: Event Impl 4.4.0
Reporter: Joerg Hoh
When a job needs to be retried, a new Timer with a single TimerTask is created.
As each Timer creates a controlling thread, a large number of jobs to be
retried can lead to the creation of a large amount of threads. This number is
unlimited.
To control the amount of threads created under such circumstances, a
ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor should be used, for which we can control the number
of threads. Each Job Queue should get its own dedicated instance of such an
executor.
