The issue is that you end up over time with as many AjpConnector threads being created by Tomcat as you have apache httpd processes regardless of how many requests are forward on to Tomcat to process. For example, I have apache running on a server which hosts about 40 websites and handles 10 million page views per month. This requires at times up to 350 httpd processes to handle peak load. Only one of those websites uses Tomcat, yet Tomcat ends up spawning 350 AjpConnector threads. But the load from the one site which forwards some requests to Tomcat is only 10-15 simultaneous requests. So Tomcat ends up having 350 AjpConnector threads when it only really needs 10-20 threads for handling the requests which get forwarded to it.
