❔ .net web api thread pool size
Sure, if you want to think of it that way. I was talking about creating a thread pool. When you create a thread pool, you could create a pool with size 0. It just wouldn't do anything.

❔ .net web api thread pool size
well you could have a thread pool of 0. you just wouldn't be using threads. you could have a thread pool of 1. but at that point you wouldn't need a pool. etc etc.

❔ .net web api thread pool size
the only real limit is the capacity of whatever hardware you’re using to process those threads. (i.e. if your hardware chokes on trying to process too much at once and all the threads slow down) which usually isn’t an issue, but if it is, you generally just use benchmarks to figure out what the acceptable limit is.

❔ .net web api thread pool size
threads aren’t processes, so there isnt really an upper limit on how many threads you can use.

❔ Reading from a JSON file
The "type" is the name of a program that has many different versions. The path is a path to a registry key in the Windows uninstall registry. I'm using this registry key in order to find the location where the program is installed. Then, I use the name of the executable to start the program. the json structure that I posted originally was just what made the most sense to me.

❔ Reading from a JSON file
honestly, all of these seem plausible, depending on use case. the only thing that seems constant is that if I don't know how many values I will have, I should shove it into a dictionary.

each path is associated with one file, though the same file may have multiple paths.

❔ Reading from a JSON file
how does that support a more complex structure? an array of strings is simpler and doesn’t have as much information.
