As you yourself stated, the problem is this "slowed our Apache-Webserver
down because its maximum count of incoming connections has been
exceeded". You want to limit the amount of Apache connections, ergo you
must limit the amount of Apache connections.
By the time THREDDS is called it is already too late. All it can do is
abort the transfer, but in most cases it will immediately have to deal
with another one. What you want is for Apache (or a firewall/proxy) to
filter out misbehaving IP addresses, keeping THREDDS free to deal with
other customers.
