Hi, chris: >"busy" is the same as "active". When not use <Executor>, our busy thread always keep under 10 while the currentThreadCount keeps high (these are get from tomcat manager), So we really don't know how many threads are truly free. How many are in keepAlivedStatus

Set your initial and max threads to the same value (pool size = constant) and then monitor the "active count" with a Nagios warning at e.g. 80% usage. > Since not use the <Executor>, the busy thread account also cannot tell > us the correct active threads count.

I would always use an <Executor> for at least two different reasons: 1. Thread management (e.g. reducing threads if necessary) 2. Shared thread-pools (no need to have port 8080 and 8443 with separate pools) - -chris > -----Original Message----- From: Christopher Schultz > [mailto:ch...@christopherschultz.net] Sent: Wednesday, January 18, > 2017 3:28 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: FW: tomcat 8080 thread > not reduced > > Smith, > > On 1/18/17 12:47 AM, smith wrote: >> So the tomcat default executor will not reduce the thread count until >> it reach to the max configuration? > > By default, you get a thread pool that isn't as smart as an executor. > >> Will it reduce when it reach to max? > > Not unless you use an <Executor>. > >> And why the default not reduce the thread? > > Because it didn't do so in the past, before <Executor> was introduced. > > I'm curious: if you are willing to have e.g. 200 threads available at > any time during the life of the JVM, why does it matter if those > threads are reduced during times of inactivity? > > I think of threads as a resource like memory, where if you are going > to allocate X resources, you may as well allocate X resources and be > done with it.
