the number of threads will depend on the size of your machine, but to support many concurrent users, you will want to turn off keep alive connections, as these will have the opposite effect.

I assume that the reason for having threads waiting is that they take time to be created? And you don't want to have too many because they take up memory? I can't resist asking a question about optimal values. Since the answer is obviously "it depends" let me put my question this way. If you were running "craigslist" (I assume you've heard of it) what would these values be? How about ebay? --- Filip Hanik - Dev <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >maxThreads="150" > > your server can handle a maximum of 150 concurrent > clients > > >minSpareThreads="25" > if your server is idle, it will at least have 25 > threads waiting to handle requests > > >maxSpareThreads="75" > if your server is idle, it will have no more than 75 > threads waiting to handle requests > > you get the direction this is going in, right? > Filip > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Dola Woolfe" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "Tom Cat" <[email protected]> > Sent: Monday, January 24, 2005 2:51 PM > Subject: Meaning of threads > > > Hi, > > Where can I read about the meaning of the following > options: maxThreads="150" minSpareThreads="25" > maxSpareThreads="75" > > My server tends to lock out a user who bombards it > with requests so I'm wondering whether those options > have anything to do with it before I post the > problem > here. > > > Aaron Fude > > > > __________________________________ > Do you Yahoo!? > All your favorites on one personal page - Try My > Yahoo! > http://my.yahoo.com > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
