TaskExecutorprefer short-lived tasks over long-lived tasks?
SchedulingTaskExecutor implementation can indicate
whether it prefers submitted tasks to perform as little work as they
can within a single task execution. For example, submitted tasks
might break a repeated loop into individual subtasks which submit a
follow-up task afterwards (if feasible).
This should be considered a hint. Of course
clients are free to ignore this flag and hence the
SchedulingTaskExecutor interface overall. However, thread
pools will usually indicated a preference for short-lived tasks, to be
able to perform more fine-grained scheduling.
