Seems like a good day for a holy war.  A good holy war always starts
out with a controversial if not inflammatory statement or claim:

Tomcat alone is sufficient as an enterprise servlet container and
nothing further is needed for an adequate HA solution in most cases.

Perhaps more controversial is an unstated implication:  Apache httpd
has _no_ place in most enterprise HA setups for serving Spring-based
Web applications like CAS.

This point of view is relevant for CAS users since I'm planning to
discuss system architecture generally and servlet container
configuration specifically as part of a chapter on HA considerations
for the new CAS User Manual.  I plan to make the above statement a
thesis of the discussion.

I'm hopeful the above statement is provocative enough to stimulate
some discussion on the matter; I'm particularly eager for dissenting
opinions.  I would be especially grateful if you could back up you
opinions with analysis and/or data.

Kindly,
Marvin
