CAS 3.3 on Tomcat 5.5

Tue, 16 Sep 2008 08:56:50 -0700

Is there any compelling reason to (or not to) run Apache in front of Tomcat5.5 when we are dedicating a (virtual) server to run CAS? The Tomcat documentation extols the virtues of Tomcat's raw performance whereas I have seen other reports to the contrary. I am using OpenLDAP and the LDAP authentication configuration in CAS 3.3 and really just want to do as little as possible to have CAS up and running.
CAS is now hosted on Tomcat5.5 running CentOS and the plan was to put Apache in front of it to handle the SSL connection but is there really any advantage to doing this? If there's no compelling reason to do so, I am inclined to stick with just using Tomcat given that I have (eventually) managed to get it to work with our certificate infrastructure. 

Thanks
