# frozen_string_literal: true
module Gitlab
# Used to run small workloads concurrently to other threads in the current process.
# This may be necessary when accessing process state, which cannot be done via
# Sidekiq jobs.
#
# Since the given task is put on its own thread, use instances sparingly and only
# for fast computations since they will compete with other threads such as Puma
# or Sidekiq workers for CPU time and memory.
#
# Good examples:
# - Polling and updating process counters
# - Observing process or thread state
# - Enforcing process limits at the application level
#
# Bad examples:
# - Running database queries
# - Running CPU bound work loads
#
# As a guideline, aim to yield frequently if tasks execute logic in loops by
# making each iteration cheap. If life-cycle callbacks like start and stop
# aren't necessary and the task does not loop, consider just using Thread.new.
