> When we moved to Java 21 for NiFi 2.0 one of the exciting capabilities that
> we discussed was the ability to move to virtual threads for scheduling
> processors. This provides a handful of benefits:
> * The scheduling code becomes much simpler
> * It's a bit more efficient, with no need to constantly schedule tasks and
> then cancel futures in the case of a yield, etc.
> * We could use ThreadLocal whereas right now it does not work well
> * Use of Logging MDC could be improved
> * Thread dumps are much clearer because we pin a given 'task' to a single
> thread. So things like AbstractProcessor calling ProcessSession.commit can be
> tracked back to a specific thread and therefore a specific processor, etc.
