Dive into the latest advancements in #Java with our latest article on JDK 21's virtual threads: https://bit.ly/4cEppIA
This analysis compares the performance of virtual threads with Open Liberty's thread pool, focusing on key findings such as throughput, ramp-up times, and memory footprint. While virtual threads offer several advantages, they also show unexpected performance issues, especially in CPU-intensive workloads.
This analysis guides Java developers on when and how to use virtual threads in their applications.
Done with evolving features, next up are new previews
. I cover all three below
, but I also want to briefly touch on the almost-fourth: Generational Shenandoah, which almost made it into #JDK21 as an experimental feature but was retracted last minute. Details:
