If you max out the threads, then the thread that is waiting in ThreadPool is
the one that will do the next accept. It's supposed to be a temporary
condition (since a thread should get returned to to Pool soon). Porting the
connectionTimeout throttling back to 4.1 should make it more responsive in
this case (since Tomcat will stop doing keep-alives). Of course, what it's
really telling you is that your maxProcessors is set too low :).
