But during load testing the system starts breaking down. It takes about 1/5 the load to break down apache and stunnel, than directly against my jboss node.

Could you elaborate on "break down", please?

Is there an error? A core dump?

What is the error message? A core dump stack backtrace?

First performance recommendation is to disable libwrap support: ./configure --disable-libwrap && make clean && make && make install
