I had ran into a case where we tweaked it real high on a dev box (5m seconds) and we had a process, though somewhat idle, that never finished. The connection was disconnected but the thread didn't go away. We only discovered it when all threads were in use. In our case it was a web service that accepted some data and was supposed to do processing, which should have finished in a few seconds. Just a thought.
