But under heavy load, a minor oversight in channel sizing or worker coordination blocks the scheduler, leaks memory, or crashes processes with runtime panics.</p> <p><picture class="optimized-image-container"><source srcset="http://localhost:1313/go-channels-deep-dive/go-scheduler-meme_hu_524f15f4ab89fd6f.webp 480w, http://localhost:1313/go-channels-deep-dive/go-scheduler-meme_hu_50f95d885458376d.webp 646w" sizes="(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" type="image/webp"><img src="http://localhost:1313/go-channels-deep-dive/go-scheduler-meme_hu_50f95d885458376d.webp" width="646" height="797" alt="The Go scheduler coordinating 10,000 goroutines on a single-core CPU" loading="eager" decoding="async" fetchpriority="high" class="img-fluid" /> </picture></p>
