Something else to consider is configuring two connection thread queues
for your server. AOLserver 4.x allows you to map URL's to a particular
pool of connection threads.

One could imagine configuring two pools: one pool with say 10 max
connection threads to handle the "slow" requests (PUTS), and a second
pool to handle the "fast" requests (PROPFIND).

Doing this will provide a little more isolation, and ensure your server
doesn't thread max only handling the "slower" PUTS requests. This is a
lot like resource quotas.

There is a configuration example in the sample-config.tcl file towards
the bottom. Let me know if there are any questions.
