Thanks for your reply Mark!  My sysadmin tells me just that we're
using "the defaults" for event_mpm.  However we are still using the
BIO AJP connector:

<Connector port="8009" protocol="AJP/1.3" redirectPort="8443"
                maxThreads="300" minSpareThreads="25"
maxSpareThreads="75" connectionTimeout="20000"/>

Is there a way I can tell from the Tomcat side when there is thread starvation?
