Reason for asking this is that, I have been firing around 200 concurrent connections via SOAP to a web service, and in MySQL, I have never seen more than 20 connections being processed at a time.
My MySQL settings are as below: max_connections=1000 max_user_connections=50
MySQL show variables have confirmed that these are the settings in effect, so I am tempted to rule out MySQL.
Any inputs from anyone familiar with JBOSS (EJB) or Tomcat could shed some light on this?
