hi marzia

when this occurs, is the temp governor set for the entire app? or just
the handler that caused the high CPU warning? above, Nick said that
the typical request was 30-200ms so it seems odd that it would be
throttled

I think this is better then the original high CPU reaction (throw
exception after limit) but if it affects *all* handlers it might turn
out to be far worse for apps where the majority of requests are well
below the high CPU threadhold

cheers
