.NET ThreadPool starvation, and how queuing makes it worse
Read OriginalThis technical article delves into .NET ThreadPool starvation, a performance issue where asynchronous code breaks due to synchronous waiting on tasks. It explains the mechanics using a web server example, describes how request bursts lead to starvation, and investigates why the ThreadPool sometimes fails to recover even at its thread limit. The analysis includes code examples to illustrate how queuing worsens the situation.
