I don't know if the backport implementation can be
better than native implementation of ThreadPool
in Java 5. My feeling would be that the native
implementation should be better, but only benchmark
can say that...
The problem is not that Java 5 concurrent is worst than the backported
we use. We have to be jdk 1.4 compatible, because MINA is used in
project that are using jdk 1.4. For instance, Apache Directory Server
use MINA, and ADS must be 1.4 compatible, because ADS is used in
Geronimo, which needs a 1.4 jdk...
That's pretty boring, but there is nothing we can do about that, except
deriving a new version, like Tomcat did with Tomcat 5 and Tomcat 5.5.
I hope this explanation be usefull (if I'm not totally wrong :)
