 ... except for the fact that your machine is overloaded.

  If a request is being processed *slowly*, but still being processed,
then that means the server isn't buggy, but your CPU has too little
time to spend servicing the requests.

  I'm amazed, quite frankly, at how quickly people ran into this
problem.  My tests showed that even without thread pools, the server
could handle fairly high loads.

  I guess that real-world loads are 10-100 times what I used in my
tests.  Oh well.
