No sane server app is actually spawning a new thread per request, it takes one from pool. A spawned thread inherits visibility of its parent thread (at the moment of spawning). Even if a new thread still sees stale pool, it'll be updated on first cache miss. It won't even do a write. So, no "all the intern calls again", such scenario doesn't exist even in theory. -- Kirill Zakharenko/Кирилл Захаренко (ear...@gmail.com) Home / Mobile: +7 (495) 683-567-4 / +7 (903) 5-888-423 ICQ: 104465785 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: java-dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: java-dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
