Hi all,
I am working on a project which tries to tune the Tomcat thread pool dynamically by looking at runtime characteristics in order to enhance the system performance. To get a better understanding, I have gone through the Tomcat source code and found out that it uses ThreadPoolExecutor. It maps minSpareThreads parameter to corePoolSize and maxThreads parameter to specify the maximum thread pool size. However, I'm having trouble understanding how to specify the queue length. This is not the acceptCount. I'm talking about the size of the BlockingQueue (work queue) which is used inside the ThreadPoolExecutor. As per my understanding, the BlockingQueue (work queue) and the request queue (of which the size is specified using the acceptCount parameter) are two different queues (am I wrong here? are both the same?). My Question is, how to specify the length of the BlockingQueue (work queue) using Tomcat parameters? Is there any JMX MBean that reports this queue size? Any pointers, help, and suggestions are welcome.
