1. Context switching in a complex task environment like software development is a major problem.

2. If the value of context switching is very high, increasing the time slice can improve performance, but this should only be done after extensive analysis.

3. Context switching between threads involves saving and restoring the state of threads.

4. Afterall, many aspects of agile development work in large part to reduce the inefficiencies multi-tasking can introduce; they work to help teams suffer less from "context switching".

5. The connection concentrator is associated with context switching of agents.

6. Due to the overhead involved in context switching to a thread or process for any amount of work,() systems with small-scope granularity are often inefficient and suffer from low performance.

7. The following figure shows how context switching begins to level off on a two-processor front-end server as processor usage increases.

8. Next, Heath argues, CPU-specific issues like register stacks and context switching need to be standardised.

9. I personally do not believe that everyone has the right mindset, passion, discipline and capability to be involved in incubation all the time, context switching from day to day business goals.

10. Increasing the time slice can improve system throughput due to reduced context switching.

11. Increasing the time slice might improve system throughput, due to reduced context switching.

12. Indeed, too many threads will even degrade performance because of the additional context switching overhead.

13. Finally, while the scheduling overhead of switching between threads is small,() with many threads context switching can become a significant drag on your program's performance.

14. He is responsible for managing and responding to all the distractions and context switching scenarios which would otherwise have disturbed the whole team.

15. This avoids network latency and the overhead of inter-process communication, as well as context switching in the operating system, further contributing to extreme speed.

16. To implement a component-scoped thread pool, a third-party thread pool must be used in conjunction with the J2EE context switching capability of asynchronous beans.

17. However, we had to be careful because, as you increase this number, context switching also increases.

18. And if each thread (ergo network connection) is busy, then the context switching to each thread can be significant.

19. If we really wanted to eliminate the possibility of context switching, we would need to have more CPUs on a system than processes running on that system.

20. The benefit of using the Project Explorer in this way is that the document that you are editing is always visible so that no context switching is required.

21. This is most likely due to the cost of context switching between so many threads.
