When using a TaskPool in any non-pooled-thread, the thread may block to wait for the completion of the pool tasks. However, in a pooled thread, blocking is not allowed because that would stop the thread pool from proceeding with its work. Instead, pooled threads should yield to other tasks instead of waiting idly.
