--------------------------------------------------------------
Your formula is fairly accurate - given your system's memory you can support 
about 1000 threads. However, being able to physcially support that number of 
threads and having the system still run while juggling that number of threads 
are two different things. The only way to really tell how many threads your app 
can handle is through load testing. And while doing that you need to monitor 
system data, determine where the bottleneck is, then eliminate or reduce the 
bottleneck, and repeat until you get the performance you like. And there can be 
numerous reasons why your app starts to slow down at 500 threads: contention 
within the app, the app server or even the OS/hardware.
