MariaDB thread-handling -> no-threads

Hi everybody!

in MariaDB documentation on the following page: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/thread-pool-system-status-variables/ It is told that "When the no-threads mode is enabled, the server uses a single thread for all client connections, which is really only usable for debugging." What does this have to do with debugging? Could somebody please explain? I appreciate your help.

Regards, Ali

This "only usable for debugging" is an euphemism for - don't try this at home. It is not usable for anything, not even debugging, it just remains there as an early example of alternative scheduler that very likely nobody is using.
