I did not go too far, it was the default, after some time I set it to 300
but this did not change anything.

That might be the reason for trouble. If things start to get slow, the web server gets filled by all thenew requests still coming in without answering fast enough the existing ones. People often try to work around this by increasing the number of threads available for processing the requests, but if the backend is stuck or too slow, this will not help and instead also trash the frontend.

You should measure how many connections you need during peak hours without performance problems, and then add some percentage depending on your growth rate etc. Finally you need to make sure, that your web server itself uses at least as many threads, as you configured as the pool size.

For Apache with mod_jk we can automatically detect the number of threads and by default size our pool to the same number. For IIS you have to size the pool yourself (or live with the big default of 250).
