Kevin Risden commented on SOLR-16597:
-------------------------------------

So I'm against this change. I didn't know why at first but just had a bad 
feeling that daemon threads do stuff we probably don't want. I did some 
research and found these two references. 

Some background on daemon threads:
* https://www.baeldung.com/java-daemon-thread
* https://stackoverflow.com/a/2213443

I think it makes sense that if you open a client you should close the client. 
Any other usage is invalid.

> Http2SolrClient, using the Jetty httpclient creates threads that are not 
> Daemon threads.  If the main method exits without closing the SolrClient, 
> those threads stay running and so the program never ends.
> The old HttpSolrClient, using Apache httpclient, works as expected, so I 
> think that http client is likely creating daemon threads.
> Talking with the Jetty project, I learned there is a way to have those 
> threads created as daemon threads.  The pool object has a "setDaemon" method. 
>  But I have not been able to figure out how to access the pool object to set 
> that parameter.  I was informed that our executor wrappers lack the 
> configuration option to do this.
> This issue is where I will figure out how to make this aspect of an executor 
> configurable and implement it so Http2SolrClient works as expected.  If 
> somebody can point me in the right direction, I would greatly appreciate it.  
> I do not want to have our executor always create Daemon threads ... that 
> should be configurable, and default to false as the current code does.
