We try to always use apache for static content and tomcat for
application content.
The only issues we had are when the static content needs to be protect
in someway.
As for speed there is only a small hit serving the static content in
tomcat as opposed to apache.

I've got a follow-on question - does anyone have any experience of the
benefits (if there are any) of splitting the delivery of application
pages between static and servlet i.e. have Apache/IIS serve the static
pages and Tomcat/Resin/Jetty the
Here is where Jetty shines. It has a snappy and efficient HTTP
implementation; no need to use Apache for most apps.

Oracle's J2EE server is based off Orion. I would guess their servlet
container comes straight from Orion as well.

by it ... its (apparently) faster and uses less memory than tomcat.

Jetty is nice but its lack of dynamic servlet reloading has always
been a sore point with me. For deployment Jetty is fine but I'd
rather use Tomcat for development.

To be honest I dont think much in it anymore. Tomcat 5.x is very
performant, JBoss uses the same catalina code base. WebSphere has a
good reputation for scalability, Jetty starts fast.

Glassfish now has their own impl, although I don't know it's pedigree.
I'd expect it's based on Tomcat.
I don't know what WebSphere uses (you could probably guess looking at
the jars), nor oracle.
