10 is the hard-coded minimum set in Tomcat. You have two choices:

1. Recompile Tomcat 5, lowering the hard-coded minimum.
2. Implement a filter or some other type of synchronization in your
servlet which keeps track of the number of currently executing requests
and redirects the user to a different page with a meta refresh letting
them know that their request is being queued until the other outstanding
requests finish.
