size=4>Overview












size=2>Java allows you to give each of the threads running in a
virtual machine a
size=2>priority.
Higher-priority threads generally get more of a chance to run than
lower-priority threads, but exact thread-scheduling behavior varies
by VM implementation and operating system. Thread prioritization can
be used to provide suggestions to the VM as to how you would like
the threads to take turns running on the processor relative to each
other, increasing an application’s responsiveness to relatively more
important events.
