Hi Bhavana
To be honest, it is not easy to test this out. This is because there is no straightforward way to intentionally reproduce the conditions that causes the blocking threads. The issue is typically due to intermittent connectivity problems which is hard to simulate at will.
In the past, we have only ever been able to verify the changes by way of observation, i.e. make the changes, then observe and monitor the system over a period of time to see if the the symptoms still persist or not. And I'm glad to tell you that the symptoms no longer appear each time we implemented it.
