The thread pool has a maximum number of threads, so a large number of blocked thread pool threads might prevent tasks from starting.</p></li> <li><p>You need to place threads into a single-threaded apartment. All ThreadPool threads are in the multithreaded apartment.</p></li> <li><p>You need to have a stable identity associated with the thread, or to dedicate a thread to a task.</p></li> </ul> </blockquote> <p>You'll likely need to come up with your own implementation, and handle creation of Threads directly. </p> <p><em>Question:</em> What are you trying to achieve do you have a set of tasks to be processed and you want high priority tasks to happen first, and lower ones to happen later; or do you actually want Threads of differing priority? </p>
