Under normal circumstances you would have a fixed (or limited) thread pool,

Of course it does make sense to use pre-started threads.
How are requests queued if no threads are available in the pool ? If this is
done by a single (main) thread, this might introduce a bandwidth limitation.
using apache as an example, if the maximum number of servers (threads) is
reached, then requests are queued for X amount of time in the hopes that a
server comes free to handle the request... if a server does not come free within
X amount of time, then that request is dropped in the bitbucket...
i think that the queue (bucket?) also has a limit on the number of requests that
it will hold and if this is reached, then in FIFO fashion, the first in is
dumped since it is also the oldest...
