> We are looking into switching from platform threads to virtual threads. We
> have multiple routes, consuming from SQS queues. To achieve high throughput
> today, we use threads EIP like this:
>
> {code:java}
> from(someSqsQueue?&waitTimeSeconds=10&maxMessagesPerPoll=10&extendMessageVisibility=true).threads().maxQueueSize(50).bean(service);{code}
> as you can see, we use the threads EIP to do the actual processing. This way,
> we have a single consumer thread, using long poll, to fetch up to 10 messages
> at a time, and offload them to a pool of threads to get processed. The max
> queue size is set relatively low, because if it gets full, then
> extendMessageVisibility kicks in, and we don’t want to do this across a too
> large set of messages. It also has the benefit that the polling thread will
> pick up processing, effectively backing off from pulling in more load.
> Now, if we switch to using virtual threads, we observe that the max queue
> size is ignored, and we keep pulling in messages unlimited – isn’t this a bug
> in threads EIP when combined with virtual threads?
> I can use a custom executor service with threads to overcome this, but is
> that really the best way?
> Our motivation for switching to virtual threads is due to having too many
> platform threads when the number of consumers using this pattern increases
> within an application.
