How can I change thread pool size in embedded Jetty 9? Do we need any specific component for this?

From docs:

The Server instance provides a ThreadPool instance that is the default Executor service other Jetty server components use. The prime configuration of the thread pool is the maximum and minimum size and is set in etc/jetty.xml.

<Configure id="server" class="org.eclipse.jetty.server.Server">   
<Set name="threadPool">
    <New class="org.eclipse.jetty.util.thread.QueuedThreadPool">
      <Set name="minThreads">10</Set>
      <Set name="maxThreads">1000</Set>
    </New>
</Set> 
</Configure>

Or

QueuedThreadPool threadPool = new QueuedThreadPool(100, 10);
Server server = new Server(threadPool);
