      reload_
      2. deploy the attached long-running-servlet.war
      3. perform requests (the duration parameter dictates how much time in ms the request processing should take):

      for i in {1..300}; do curl http://localhost:8080/long-running-servlet/HeavyProcessing?duration=5000 & done
      

      4. you can see the way the requests are being processed in the server log

      There is a change in behavior of the max-connections attribute in Undertow's http(s)-listener between EAP 7.2.4 and 7.2.5.CR1.

      Let's say max-connections=10:

      • 7.2.4: the number of concurrent connections is limited to 10, additional connections are rejected
      • 7.2.5.CR1: there are still only up to 10 connections created, but the additional requests are no longer rejected, but instead processed in batches of 10

      It looks like the change actually comes from the XNIO upgrade to 3.7.6 (JBEAP-17665)
