Hi,

I found the following code in our code base in the same class.


private final ExecutorService executor = Executors.newCachedThreadPool();

List<Future<T>> startExcuting() {
        try {
            return executor.invokeAll(Lists.newArrayList(tasks));
        } catch (InterruptedException e) {
            throw new AppException("startExcuting interrupted", e);
        } finally {
            tasks.clear();
           

        }
    }


My question is: Should we not have  executor.shutdown(); or threads might live longer. Is that correct?
