A method, system, and computer program product for the prioritization of code execution. The method includes accessing a thread in a context containing a set of code instances stored in memory; identifying sections of the set of code instances that correspond to deferrable code tasks; executing the thread in the context; determining that the thread is idle; and executing at least one of the deferrable code tasks. The deferrable code task is executed within the context and in response to determining that the thread is idle.
