>>I wonder what the performance implications of using continuations are?
Note that the Jetty continuation API predates Servlet 3 specification. Hence to
maintain backwards compatibility, latest version of Jetty implements
continuation API using the Servlet 3 APIs under the hood. I could not find any
recent reference suggesting bad performance of servlet 3 based implementation.
There is one article (published in 2008) comparing the performance difference
between thread-per-request model vs non-blocking IO
(http://iobound.com/tag/jetty/). But given that the latest version of Jetty
uses [NIO by
default|http://stackoverflow.com/questions/25195128/how-do-jetty-and-other-containers-leverage-nio-while-sticking-to-the-servlet-spe],
I am not sure how relevant this really is.
Also as I mentioned before we will still get to use the thread-per-request
model when the number of requests (of a specific type) are less than the
capacity reserved for that request type. All the additional requests will be
buffered in a Queue until at-least one thread is available for processing.
Logically this is as good as having two separate endpoints each associated with
a dedicated thread-pool and an accept queue.
Anyway I think we should do a performance testing with this change to be
certain. Please let me know if there are any concerns with this proposal.
Otherwise I will start implementing this approach.
> Use two thread pools, one for internal requests and one for external, to
> avoid distributed deadlock and decrease the number of threads that need to be
> created.
