Well, say a worker thread can handle 2 requests per second (I think this is actually very low- they should be able to handle more, depending on execution time of the pages). Well, there's 3600 seconds in an hour, so that's 7200 requests per hour, per thread. 10 threads would have a max throughput of 72,000 requests/hour.
I realize this little demonstration isn't very scientific, but I think at the very least it shows that 200 simultaneous threads is massive overkill. In fact, I'd bet that it's probably hurting performance, since each one is going to take up a chunk of memory, and maybe even CPU depending on how the thread scheduling is handled. I'd recommend you set your server to ~15 simultaneous threads. You're averaging around 6 requests/second, so that should be more than enough.

Today we had several serious overloads at peak time (22k hits / hour, 500 connections).
