Does anyone know, are threads at the same priority preemptively timesliced by default? If so, what is the time quantum?
In this implementation of Java, threads of the same priority will preempt each other (so it’s not a “run until completion” policy), but it is based on the number of bytecodes executed, not strictly time based.
Thanks for the reply. How do you know that? Is there a document somewhere I could read to learn more, rather than peppering you with more questions? Unless you don’t mind
