Hi! Sometimes it takes very very long to get into a coroutine. For example:

<http://logger.info|logger.info>("command = start")
                    launch(CommonPool) {
                        <http://logger.info|logger.info>("in pool for start")

I get the

in pool for start

message minutes later than

command = start

message. Am I not using coroutines correctly? I am running a lot of stuff in these launch(CommonPool) blocks.

The common pool is designed for tasks that "wait a lot", it is limited in threads to I think two times the core count. So if you have that many coroutines "actually doing things" in there, new coroutines will wait around until a thread is free.

ah, thank you! I'll keep that in mind because I was indeed using around ~20 coroutines I think...

Just checked, it's not even two times the core count, it's core count - 1.
