24 | * |
25 | * If a set of Jobs accesses a resource that can be overloaded, this may degrade application performance. For |
26 | * example, loading too many files from the hard disc at the same time may lead to longer load times. |
27 | * ResourceRestrictionPolicy can be used to cap the number of accesses. Resource restriction policies are |
28 | * shared between the affected jobs. All jobs that share a resource restriction policy have to acquire |
29 | * permission from the policy before they can run. In this way, resource restrictions can be compared to |
30 | * semaphores, only that they require no locking at the thread level. |
31 | * The example uses a resource restriction to limit the number of images files that are loaded from |
32 | * the disk at the same time. |
