Java: WebFlux vs Virtual Threads
Answer
A separate thread is created for each request.
In the Thread-Per-Request model, each incoming client request is handled by a dedicated thread. This can lead to resource exhaustion in high-concurrency environments as the number of threads increases. In a simple e-commerce server, each user browsing products would have a separate thread, leading to potential performance bottlenecks as load increases.
