The send function uses a fixed thread pool (see the
newFixedThreadPool method in java.util.concurrent.Executors) where the
number of threads is the number of processors plus two. If all of
those threads are busy, the
So, I'm working on a medium-largish server application in Clojure (medium
amounts of code- currently 10KLOC and growing quickly, two people working
on it now and hopefully more in the future. This isn't brag-worthy size,
but it's large enough to start causing problems). Specifically, there will
You might want to look into the stuff from JSR166 (scheduled for Java
7, but already available as a library for Java 6), which has advanced,
built-in workload-balancing which is vastly easier than trying to do
this with the raw, naive j.u.c.Executors-package (and Clojure's
agents, which are
