Subject: [PATCH 03/16] util/event-loop-base: Introduce options to set the
thread pool size
RH-Author: Nicolas Saenz Julienne <nsaenzju@redhat.com>
RH-MergeRequest: 93: util/thread-pool: Expose minimum and maximum size
RH-Commit: [3/3] af78a88ff3c69701cbb5f9e980c3d6ebbd13ff98
RH-Bugzilla: 2031024

The thread pool regulates itself: when idle, it kills threads until
empty, when in demand, it creates new threads until full. This behaviour
doesn't play well with latency sensitive workloads where the price of
creating a new thread is too high. For example, when paired with qemu's
'-mlock', or using safety features like SafeStack, creating a new thread
has been measured take multiple milliseconds.
In order to mitigate this let's introduce a new 'EventLoopBase'
property to set the thread pool size. The threads will be created during
the pool's initialization or upon updating the property's value, remain
available during its lifetime regardless of demand, and destroyed upon
freeing it. A properly characterized workload will then be able to
configure the pool to avoid any latency spikes.
