Suspending threads by ThreadPoolExecutor

[Maciej]

Hi all,

Does ThreadPoolExecutor may suspend idle threads ?
I wonder wether suspended threads eat less resources than active ?

I imagine the solution when ThreadPoolExecutore suspends each idle
threat after idleness of 60 seconds and after next 60 seconds of being
suspend the thread got killed ?

Is it reasonable ?

Regards,

Maciej

If the thread is idle, what would the point of suspend be?
Thread.suspend is deprecated for very good reason.
