JBoss EAP has many threads named like "pool-161-thread-20"
Issue
- There are hundreds of threads all looking like this:
"pool-132-thread-6" prio=10 tid=0x00007f7630232800 nid=0x1276 waiting on condition [0x00007f76453a6000]
java.lang.Thread.State: WAITING (parking)
at sun.misc.Unsafe.park(Native Method)
- parking to wait for <0x00000007afba0f90> (a java.util.concurrent.locks.AbstractQueuedSynchronizer$ConditionObject)

- The names will vary: "
pool-X-thread-Y", where X is a number going up all the time, and Y a number between 1 and 20. - CPU usage will reach 100% and only a restart helps.
