What causes Spring scheduler to execute before the application and servlet starts up?

问题

I have a simple Spring-Boot web application with some scheduling tasks:

@SpringBootApplication
@EnableScheduling
public class Application extends SpringBootServletInitializer {

    @Override
    protected SpringApplicationBuilder configure(final SpringApplicationBuilder app) {
        return app.sources(Application.class);
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        SpringApplication.run(Application.class, args);
    }
}

And a service executing two scheduling tasks:

@Service
public class SchedulingService {

    @Scheduled(fixedRate = 15000)
    private void first() {
        // log first
    }

    @Scheduled(fixedRate = 6000)
    public void second() {
        // log second
    }
}

Is there any explanation revealing why one of the scheduling tasks has been executed before the application and servlet starts up? This happens repeatedly and the log order is always the same, so I suspect the multithreading doesn't take place - there is nearly one-second difference between the first and the second scheduling task.

Here is the log with highlighted parts of the scheduling task log:

I just created an empty SpringBoot project, added your class and tried to reproduce the same issue. On SpringBoot 2.0.4.RELEASE I see that both tasks run at the same time and same thread:

2018-08-18 21:16:54.145  INFO 10239 --- [pool-1-thread-1] com.test.SchedulingService               : LOG FIRST
2018-08-18 21:16:54.145  INFO 10239 --- [pool-1-thread-1] com.test.SchedulingService               : LOG SECOND

Then, I added a Thread.sleep(100) on the both tasks as I cannot predict the execution order.

2018-08-18 21:21:14.775  INFO 10274 --- [pool-1-thread-1] com.test.SchedulingService               : LOG FIRST
2018-08-18 21:21:14.878  INFO 10274 --- [pool-1-thread-1] com.test.SchedulingService               : LOG SECOND

The delay of aprox 100ms between the log entries, confirm that they run on the same thread.

You might think that setting the initialDelay = 0 on the @Scheduled might help, but it will not; everything will still be on the main thread.

The solution I found is defining a custom bean that creates a customTaskScheduler:

@Bean()
public  ThreadPoolTaskScheduler  taskScheduler(){
    ThreadPoolTaskScheduler taskScheduler = new ThreadPoolTaskScheduler();
    taskScheduler.setPoolSize(2);
    taskScheduler.setThreadNamePrefix("Async-");
    return  taskScheduler;
}

Now, the logs show that both tasks are executed at the same time and by different threads:

2018-08-18 21:30:26.482  INFO 10383 --- [           main] o.s.b.w.embedded.tomcat.TomcatWebServer  : Tomcat started on port(s): 8080 (http) with context path ''
2018-08-18 21:30:26.486  INFO 10383 --- [           main] com.test.ProjectApplication              : Started ProjectApplication in 1.767 seconds (JVM running for 2.137)
2018-08-18 21:30:26.555  INFO 10383 --- [        Async-2] com.test.SchedulingService               : LOG SECOND
2018-08-18 21:30:26.555  INFO 10383 --- [        Async-1] com.test.SchedulingService               : LOG FIRST

I defined a thread pool of size = 2. What will happen if I have 3 tasks to run? One of the tasks will need to wait to complete the execution of the previous 2, get the thread released and check the execution queue again.

2018-08-18 21:33:48.895  INFO 10412 --- [           main] o.s.b.w.embedded.tomcat.TomcatWebServer  : Tomcat started on port(s): 8080 (http) with context path ''
