My first guess would be that you've saturated one core. The server
probably still processes new connections in a single thread (it did on
Unix platforms last time I looked at the code at any rate). So although
the CPU load overall is not 100%, once you max out one core, it won't be
able to process new connections any faster. That said, the rate you are
achieving seems quite low for a modern machine. It would be worthwhile
looking to see if it is doing a reverse DNS lookup on the client IP address.
After that, try using pstack to see what the accept thread is spending
its time on.
