Hi,

Is my understanding correct that the 'Number of Keep-Alive threads' is
not used in GFv2.1.1 and removed completely from GFv3.x?

There is a field "Thread Count" in the admin console (under
Configurations > HTTP Service > Keep Alive) in GFv2.1.1 but any value I
specify does not set the variable maxThreads in class KeepAlivePipeline.
Also, this variable does not seem to be used.
In GFv3.0.1 the field in the console seems to be gone and class
KeepAlivePipeline is not there anymore either. Class SelectorThread has
a field keepAliveThreadCount set to 1 but this does not seem to be used
either.

Thanks,
Dies
