Jackey Lyu updated FLUME-2785:
------------------------------
    Description: 
The current implementation of thrift source in 
`flume-ng-core/src/main/java/org/apache/flume/source/ThriftSource.java`, there 
is something can be done to improve the usability of thrift source.

If users did not config the `threads` parameter for thrift source, the default 
threads number will be Integer.MAX_VALUE, which may easily cause 
OutofMemoryError if no threads are in idle status.

It's better to add a non-zero default value for it.

And in the manual https://flume.apache.org/FlumeUserGuide.html#thrift-source, 
the `threads` parameter is not required, I think it is better to notice that it 
is required.
