Virtual threads, as part of Project Loom, revolutionize concurrency by allowing developers to create thousands of concurrent tasks easily, minimizing performance overhead.
Using a cooperative scheduling model, virtual threads enable more efficient management of resources by allowing threads to yield control voluntarily, enhancing performance significantly.
Managed by the JVM instead of the operating system, virtual threads facilitate better resource utilization and scaling, crucial for high-performance applications requiring concurrency.
Integration of virtual threads with existing Java APIs like ExecutorService and ForkJoinPool ensures ease of adoption and compatibility with legacy systems, streamlining development.
