Object    LogicalThread

This class provides a simple alternative to synchronization primitives such as wait handles and locks. Actions dispatched to a logical thread will be processed synchronously as though it was executed as consecutive method calls. All such actions can be dispatched from any thread in the system so method calls coming from multiple threads can be easily synchronized without locks, loops, wait handles, or timeouts.

Note that the LogicalThreadScheduler implements its own thread pool to execute tasks pushed to logical threads. Executing long-running processes or using synchronization primitives with high contention or long timeouts can hinder the logical thread schedulers ability to schedule the actions of other logical threads. Like other thread pool implementations, you can mitigate this by increasing the maximum thread count of the logical thread scheduler, however it is recommended to avoid using synchronization primitives and instead synchronize those operations by running them as separate actions on the same logical thread.
