ExecutorService slow multi thread performance?

Math.random() is synchronized. Kind of the whole point of synchronized is to slow things down so they don't collide. Use something that isn't synchronized and/or give each thread its own object to work with, like a new Random .

You'd do well to read the contents of the other thread. There's plenty of good tips in there.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
