[Jetty-support] Server not accepting more requests until previous one finishes

[Pablo C. <pc...@ac...>]

Hi

Continuing with the problem I reported before 
(http://www.nabble.com/sending-the-response-in-a-separate-thread-tf4490414.html), 
I was doing some testing with threads in jetty 6. I have this code to 
initialize the server:
            Server server = new Server();
   
            BoundedThreadPool treads = new BoundedThreadPool();
            treads.setMinThreads(5);
            treads.setMaxThreads(10);
            server.setThreadPool(treads);
     
           Connector connector=new SelectChannelConnector();
            connector.setPort(8090);
            server.setConnectors(new Connector[]{connector});
            
            server.setHandler(new ThreadedHandler());
            server.start();

The handler implements a simple handle method, which sleeps for some 
seconds and then send a response:
public void handle(String target, HttpServletRequest request, 
HttpServletResponse response, int dispatch)
    throws IOException, ServletException
    {
        try {
       
        System.out.println("Request Received");   
        Thread.sleep(10000);
        System.out.println("Request Processed");   
        } catch (InterruptedException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
       response.setContentType("text/xml");
       response.setStatus(HttpServletResponse.SC_OK);
       response.getWriter().println("<H1>HELLO WORLD</H1>");
       response.getWriter().flush();
    }

Notice I'm writing a message at the beginning and at the end of the 
handle method.

Now, If I make two request to the server (from a browser), I get this 
output:
   Request Received
   Request Processed
   Request Received
  Request Processed

Notice that the second request did not start until the first one 
finishes. Is this correct? How could I make jetty to keep attending 
requests even when the previous one is blocked.

Thanks
