> @mdedetrich this change does not use any new classes - it uses existing classes. `synchronized` has not been improved in Java 21 but locks like ReentrantLock have been. ReentrantLock does not block the carrier thread and other virtual threads can use the carrier thread while the lock is waiting. `synchronized` does block the carrier thread and other virtual threads will not get a chance to use the carrier thread during the synchronized blocking is waiting (known as pinning). > > See https://softwaremill.com/what-is-blocking-in-loom/#retrofitting-blocking I wasn't talking about this PR but the other one with VirtualThreadPool. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
