Threads in hundreds, or lower one thousand is ok, if you need more, question yourself :)
ie, if you need more concurrency, simply turn of keep alives.

Having too many threads will do the following

1. Eat up a good chunk of memory
2. Your system will spend too much time context switching

Hi,

I'd like to know if there are any gotchas from increasing maxThreads well
beyond the standard 150.  For instance, on a new Dell 1950 dual-core with
4GB RAM, why not try 300 or even thousands of threads?  I will be putting
Lighty or Apache in front of Tomcat, which is also a potential bottleneck.

Thanks for your time,

Mike Crawford
