/**

* @brief APR Thread Pool Library
* @remarks This library implements a thread pool using apr_thread_t. A thread
* pool is a set of threads that can be created in advance or on demand until a
* maximum number. When a task is scheduled, the thread pool will find an idle
* thread to handle the task. In case all existing threads are busy and the
* number of tasks in the queue is higher than the adjustable threshold, the
* pool will try to create a new thread to serve the task if the maximum number
* has not been reached. Otherwise, the task will be put into a queue based on
* priority, which can be valued from 0 to 255, with higher values being served
* first. If there are tasks with the same priority, the new task might be put at
* the top or at the bottom - it depends on which function is used to put the task.
*
* @remarks There may be the case where the thread pool can use up to the maximum
* number of threads at peak load, but having those threads idle afterwards. A
* maximum number of idle threads can be set so that the extra idling threads will
* be terminated to save system resources.
