Helidon 4 introduces support for Java 21's virtual threads from Project Loom, aiming to improve performance and simplify concurrent programming, marking a significant update in Java development ...

Virtual threads, revealed in Java's Project Loom and generally available with the Java 21 LTS, promise unparalleled scalability, simplified asynchronous coding and more efficient resource utilization.

Java virtual threads are much lighter and more efficient than traditional operating system threads, and excel at handling blocking operations. Unfortunately, despite their advantages, virtual threads ...

Virtual threads take the responsibility for allocating system resources out of your application code and into the JVM. Here's a first look at virtual threads in Java 21.

Unfortunately, Java applications taking advantage of multiple threads can at times run into the dreaded deadlock condition. Fortunately, the Java Platform makes deadlock detection relatively easy.

JDK 21's virtual threads are a major leap forward for Java's concurrency model. Previously, Java relied on OS threads, which were resource-heavy, limiting how many threads could run concurrently.
