Hi, I am using the tomcat servlet engine as a standalone server. I am sending all my request to port 8080. I want to know what is the limit on the number of simultaneous requests that is handled by tomcat. I would like to know all the limitations of tomcat in this aspect. I am using tomcat on redhat linux 6.2 operating system. I am developing a chat server and I want to configure tomcat to handle atleast 2000 simultaneous requests. I am currently recompiling the linux kernel to increase the threads per user limit. Am I on the right track could you throw some light on this. Thank you Harish __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! Shopping - Thousands of Stores. Millions of Products. http://shopping.yahoo.com/
