I have a Spring web application running in Oracle Application Server, which is based on Apache. I'm afraid I don't know which component this question might apply to.
My question is - will threads from the connection pool ever be forcibly killed? On rare occasions, a page request can take much longer than usual. Can a page request ever take so long that Apache will simply stop the thread without notice?
If so, what settings define the timeout?
To give this some context, I'm locking resources for the duration of the page generation, and I want to ensure that all locks are released. I'm not concerned about HTTP timeouts - just that locks are released.
