Hello Les, Thankyou very much for the answer!
Yes I could do that but it doesn't really solve my problem. When requests for authentication spike, I would either need to allocate a large number of threads for the ExecutorService thread pool...or slow down authentication for users by queueing the requests up (the authentication request could take several seconds to complete). OK, I will need to think about this a little more. Perhaps I will need to go a bit further off the reservation here. Thanks again!
