If a Task is created using the LongRunning option are there any side effects as they do not use the ThreadPool
Yes. Side effect is that: if you have a million tasks, you could potentially create a million threads.
Need to take into account that each thread will bring its memory overhead and context switching overhead. Memory overhead is not that small, we are talking a few MB here so even with thousands of items, you could run into trouble.
