Yes and no. ;) Technically everything in the configuration file is a Tcl command (ns_section, ns_param, etc.) so it's really not that much of a stretch. But I agree, it is different.
Here's the deal, a decision was made a while back to try some new things with AOLserver 4.5, some of which we knew wouldn't be backwards compatible. Thread pools and limits are two pretty radical changes that were made to the core. Had we ever actually gotten around to deploying AOLserver 4.5 internally here at AOL, I'm sure we would have at least done the work to provide some backwards compatibility wrappers for things like this, but as yet we haven't. I'll try and update the default configuration file with some examples soon.
