But that's not how containers work, the container will grow the
thread pool to the size needed. As new requests come in there will be
new threads.
And as long as these blocked threads are really blocked then a decent
threading implementation (eg: green threads) won't actually create any
more processing overhead because the thread layer should be
implemented as a swappable pool of OS threads.
