omniORB 3 does not have any way to set a limit. You will have one
thread for each TCP connection to the server. 200 threads should
probably be OK on most platforms.

omniORB 4 will have much better control over such things, allowing you
to transition to a thread pool model if there are too many
connections. For details, see
