Thread Pools

Thread pools on the JVM should usually be divided into the following three categories:

1. CPU-bound
2. Blocking IO
3. Non-blocking IO polling

Each of these categories has a different optimal configuration and usage pattern.

/// Returns the number of trailing zeros in a 32bit unsigned integer.

/// Hacker's Delight, Reiser's algorithm.
/// "Three ops including a "remainder, plus an indexed load."
///
/// Works because each bit in the 32 bit integer hash uniquely to the
/// prime number 37. The lowest set bit is returned via (x & -x).
ntz32(int x) {
  assert(x < 0x100000000, "only 32bit numbers  supported");
  return _ntzLut32[(x & -x) % 37];
