I'd agree these are pretty standard features for any web-server type thing.  
(apache/nginx/lighttpd mod_status, tomcat's manager status page, coldfusion's 
cfstat, et al)

Certainly if the user is expected to tune the thread count there needs to be 
some sort of quantifiable method of determining an optimum value.
