at the service level - the software has do deal with problems instead of the 
TCPIP stack.


however, as Alan said. in single thread mode, you only have one process dealing 
with
requests.....so one single open connection to SQL, one single sesion to LDAP 
etc etc
(whatever you use) - eg even a local file with PERL.

with multithread mode, you have many threads - all of which can be hitting your 
SQL or LDAP
at same time...or trying to write to the same file in a PERL module....so you 
have to look
at the speed/ability of your backend....the jump from a single query ata time 
to concurrent
queries may have tipped your balance
