threadPool
The application thread pool. Vapor uses NIOSingletons.posixBlockingThreadPool by default for this, which defaults to a thread pool of size equal to the number of available cores.
traceAutoPropagation
If enabled, tracing propagation is automatically handled by restoring & setting request.serviceContext automatically across Vapor-internal EventLoopFuture boundaries. If disabled, traces will not automatically nest, and the user should restore & set request.serviceContext manually where needed. There are performance implications to enabling this feature.
