I like the sounds of this:

"Executor -- The BlockingAdaptiveExecutor adapts the size of an internal thread pool to match the concurrency limit based on measured latencies of Runnable commands and will block when the limit has been reached."

I'm often surprised this kind of auto-scaling thread pool is not a more common thing in Java land.

Agreed - not trying to trivialize the work here, but this thing seems solved with tools at hand. Perhaps I miss some of the subtlety in their usecase, though.
Which tools are you referring to, exactly? Some citations would be helpful.
