Currently the schedulers have no concept of a > thread pool except for the component life cycle thread pool. We should > transition the tasks to a thread pool shared by the scheduler and is globally > configurable to better minimize the impact of processors. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
