Track: Java
Topic: Java Threading
Focus: ExecutorService
Java: ExecutorService
Answer
It can lead to excessive resource consumption and potential crashes.
Creating a new thread for each task with 'new Thread().start()' can quickly consume a lot of memory and CPU resources, especially under high load. This can cause the application to crash. Using ExecutorService with a FixedThreadPool can prevent this by limiting the number of concurrent threads.
