Subject: Re: role of the various threads?
Further reading has shown me that I'm using Tomcat5.5,
and that the theads (above) are all running accept().
I thought accept() was blocking?
Depends on the particular JRE being used on the particular platform. I would
expect them to be blocking in most instances, but some esoteric systems use
polling. You're getting down to a level that requires examination of not just
Tomcat source code, but also JRE source and the platform's TCP/IP stack source
- a bit beyond the normal scope of a support forum.
It appears that hprof is counting blocked threads
(since that *is* what the program is "doing"
for some meanings of "doing").
So the threads are "doing" accept() but not actively
consuming cycles whilst running accept().
Sigh. Thanks, hprof.
