Description _ tboudreau 2009-10-19 19:41:37 UTC
Apple's OS-level Grand Central Dispatch is an unbounded thread pool similar to RequestProcessor.getDefault().  It has the advantage that it can take into 
account system load and CPU count in deciding how to allocate tasks to threads.  So it has potential to improve performance.
