 * Thread information. <tt>ThreadInfo</tt> contains the information

 *
 * <h4>Execution information</h4>
 * <ul>

 *   <li>The object upon which the thread is blocked due to:
 *       <ul>
 *       <li>waiting to enter a synchronization block/method, or</li>
 *       <li>waiting to be notified in a {@link Object#wait Object.wait} method,

 *   <li>Stack trace of the thread.</li>

 *
 * <h4><a name="SyncStats">Synchronization Statistics</a></h4>

 *       synchronization or waited for notification.</li>
 *   <li>The accumulated elapsed time that the thread has blocked
 *       for synchronization or waited for notification
 *       since {@link ThreadMXBean#setThreadContentionMonitoringEnabled
