omniORB always uses multiple threads. It doesn't start one thread per
request, since that would be terribly inefficient, but it starts new
threads on demand.

What exactly are you seeing?  One thread busy processing a call should
not hold up other calls. Perhaps you are calling into a C extension
that fails to release the Python global interpreter lock?
