Answer
Requests are processed without waiting for blocking operations.
Non-Blocking Event Loops allow WebFlux to handle many requests on a few threads by not blocking the thread while waiting for I/O operations. Instead, the operation is resumed when data is available. For example, an e-commerce site using WebFlux can handle thousands of real-time price updates without dedicating a thread to each update.
