> Affects Versions: 2.2.3.1
> Reporter: Falko Modler
> Assignee: Lukasz Lenart

>
> Every new instance of org.apache.struts2.interceptor.BackgroundProcess spawns
> a new Thread (see constructor), no thread pooling is used.
> Besides problems in environments where some container might need to manage
> the creation of threads, this issue also prevents certain
> performance/efficiency optimizations via ThreadLocal from taking full effect.
> E.g.: We use ThreadLocals for Random and SimpleDateFormat and those thread
> local instances "are lost" when a new Thread is created.
> Therefore BackgroundProcess should be given a new constructor that takes a
> java.util.concurrent.Executor instance that is used to execute the Runnable.
