← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when high computational load leads to thread contention?
A)Priority inversion introduces scheduling delays✓
B)False sharing reduces CPU cache efficiency
C)Memory leaks corrupt independent memory segments
D)Deadlock causes CPU infinite resource waiting
💡 Explanation
Priority inversion delays scheduling because a lower-priority thread blocks a higher-priority thread, using preemptive scheduling. Therefore, execution slows rather than causing memory corruption or deadlock, which arise from different mechanism issues.
