It is a good thing to find a http server component which is optimized for Ajax, since Ajax components usually mean a lot of idle connections.
I'd be very surprised if keep-alive tied up a server _thread_. Keep
alive tells the server not to close the TCP socket, a performance
improvement since there are several roundtrips required to open a new
socket connection, but I can't imagine that a web server would dedicate
a thread to a socket that was waiting for a new request. Speaking only
for IIS (since it's the one I know best) IIS does _not_ dedicate a
thread to that keep-alive socket.
