The simplest thread implementation is use current short threads, as
mentioned beforehand, I think we can afford one more thread creation and
destruction for every request serving.

But I am open to the more sophisticated thread implementation that aims
to be more efficient, given that provide the same scalability of short
threads, if anyone can provide numbers that we get real better
performance from it.
