Hi Azeez,

In GW Disruptor threads are not used for make calls for backends. Backends
are called by Netty worker pool and those calls are non blocking calls. So
if backend responds after a delay it won't be a problem.


In MSF4J  if it includes IO operations or delayed operations then it causes
problems because processing happens through Disruptor threads and  by
occupying all the limited disruptor threads. But this should be solved by
operating Disruptor Event Handlers through workerpool and now we are
looking in to that why it does not provide expected results.

thanks
IsuruR
