Well, definitely faster, but I'm not sure about orderly: you should check to see what things aren't stopping and determine if they are potentially disastrous it TERMinated. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkuVQt8ACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PD8LgCdFbaGLq1nfsqJJb4dbAsKY8hT lFEAoLUQHVzXZ9KnrQ79ExupS4cyKDfD =vn8E -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
