Thank you. Unfortunately I've been unable to reproduce it locally outside of our runtime environment, but I do have a reliable reproducer there.
Would it help if I test this also with JDK 24/23/22? Otherwise I can wait until JDK-8370887 is fixed (next release of JDK 25?) and test again then.

Short version: after changing from JDK 21 to JDK 25, doing Thread.sleep(1) in a virtual thread now sometimes takes up to 60 seconds (!). Thanks for the mail. Do you have a standalone test that uses the loop in your mail that we could use to study this? The timer support has changed significantly twice between JDK 21 and JDK 25. From your mail then it could be a pathological case that leads to starvation, or it could be related to recently reported bug [1]. -Alan [1] https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8370887
