How to define one thread for multiple connections?

[Christian Migowski]

I haven't used Executors.newSingleThreadExecutor() in my own code, why
don't you try

                new NioServerSocketChannelFactory(
                        Executors.newCachedThreadPool(),
                        Executors.newCachedThreadPool()));

as most of the Netty examples do? That definitively doesn't create a
thread per connection and also handles lot of concurrent connections
just fine.
I think you should read the javadoc, it is all explained very nicely
in there [1].

hth,
christian!
