    Green threads are sheduled by VM, they are nothing but OS(Operating System) threads.

      One major conclusion to draw is that unless you are using an old JVM, your threads will be proper threads (native), not green.

        I can't even find a flag anymore that'd set green threads instead of native threads.
        I never liked those green threads: they'd block on blocking OS calls ...
