Re: grizzly-comet-webserver gets stuck sometime while processing request

I'm facing both stuck forever request(never released) and slow request issues
even when I use the default thread pool configuration (min/max - 5/5).

I tested with the scenarios with
1. -Dcom.sun.grizzly.maxSelectorReadThread = 0 : The request processing is
very quick but requests are getting stuck more often.
2. -Dcom.sun.grizzly.maxSelectorReadThread = 1 or 2 : The request
processing is slower but some requests seems to get stuck but they are
released. But STILL some requests are stuck forever.

The chances of getting STUCK are MORE in Powerful server class machines(4
core , 64bit, Linux) than in my laptop(Single core,32 bit , Windows ).

Also abstract from first mail:

One (strange??) thing I have noticed is that if I put a manual delay in
processing (sleep) in as follows I'm not getting this issue.


method DefaultThreadPool.execute(Runnable){
  ....
 if (running){
            try {
                Thread.sleep(2);
                 //or Thread.sleep(5);
                } catch {....}
            workQueue.offer(task);
            queueSize.incrementAndGet();
        }
  }


Thanks,
