Hi Folks, I have a question about Mid-tier performance between the following two configurations:
1. Running Tomcat server (version 5.0.30) as both the JSP server and the web server. 2. Running Tomcat server (version 5.0.30) as the JSP server and Apache as the web server, using the Tomcat-connector. I have asked my local support folks and thay said "it depends on the type of content that you are serving". I presume that the Apache server is a better http server, but is that outweighed by the overhead of having to ship everything through the connector to get it to the JSP engine? I am currently running it in the first configuration and it seems Ok except that it is pretty sluggish. The mid-tier machine is not doing anything else... completely unloaded. It is a development box that someone has loaned me for testing. Here are the specifics of the configuration: ARS server 5.01.02 Patch 1313 on Sun Solaris 8 DB is Sybase 12.5.2, also on Solaris 8. Mid-tier 6.3 on a dual processor (each 2.8 Ghz.) Sun V65X 2 Gig of RAM running Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (Nahant Update 4) Thanks for any insights you might have on this.
