Systems and methods for the efficient utilization of threads in a processor with multiple execution paths are disclosed. These systems and methods alleviate the need to perform context switching in one or more threads while simultaneously allowing these threads to run useful tasks. One or more of these threads may run tasks in a privileged mode, thus there may be no need to save and restore context in these threads. Additionally, by keeping the threads executing in privileged mode at a lower priority, these privileged mode tasks can run exclusively on one or more of these threads without significantly delaying the execution of other threads.
