Application-level dispatcher control of application-level pseudo threads and operating system threads

A system, comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• a processor programmed to:
• establish an application-level thread dispatcher that operates in a main full-weight thread allocated within the memory to an application;
• initialize, by the application-level thread dispatcher, a plurality of application-level pseudo threads that operate as application-controlled threads within the main full-weight thread allocated to the application;
• determine, by the application-level thread dispatcher, that at least one application-level pseudo thread meets configuration requirements to operate within a separate operating system-level thread in parallel with the main full-weight thread;
• and
• dispatch, from the main full-weight thread by the application-level thread dispatcher in response to determining that the at least one application-level pseudo thread meets the configuration requirements to operate within the separate operating system-level thread in parallel with the main full-weight thread, the at least one application-level pseudo thread to the separate operating system-level thread.

A computer program product, comprising:

• a computer readable storage medium having computer readable program code embodied therewith, where the computer readable program code when executed on a computer causes the computer to:
• establish an application-level thread dispatcher that operates in a main full-weight thread allocated to an application;
• initialize, by the application-level thread dispatcher, a plurality of application-level pseudo threads that operate as application-controlled threads within the main full-weight thread allocated to the application;
• determine, by the application-level thread dispatcher, that at least one application-level pseudo thread meets configuration requirements to operate within a separate operating system-level thread in parallel with the main full-weight thread;
• and
• dispatch, from the main full-weight thread by the application-level thread dispatcher in response to determining that the at least one application-level pseudo thread meets the configuration requirements to operate within the separate operating system-level thread in parallel with the main full-weight thread, the at least one application-level pseudo thread to the separate operating system-level thread.
