HttpRequests question

[abcd123456]

Hi,

I have a question regarding some Httprequests I see in jmx-console.

I have attached such a request, it has a very high requestProcessingTime. There are multiple requests like this on the server.

Does this imply some hanging threads? I have exported a thread dump and I noticed a large number of threads waiting like this:

Thread: http-0.0.0.0-8443-42 : priority:5, demon:true, threadId:457, threadState:WAITING, threadLockName:org.apache.tomcat.util.net.MasterSlaveWorkerThread@153fa8d

    java.lang.Object.wait(Native Method)

    java.lang.Object.wait(Object.java:485)

    org.apache.tomcat.util.net.MasterSlaveWorkerThread.await(MasterSlaveWorkerThread.java:81)

    org.apache.tomcat.util.net.MasterSlaveWorkerThread.run(MasterSlaveWorkerThread.java:107)

    java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:619)

Is this normal? Does this mean the thread is waiting for another connection or it might be an issue here?

Thank you
