The point here is how we can get most from Jetty. I know that Cocoon is
not Jetty, but including Jetty into Cocoon is promoting the use of Jetty.
Many people think about that (please check the mail to this thread before
yours). When you started talking about Jetty, Tomcat was a silent standard
for people using Cocoon. Everybody recommend you the use the Tomcat. Now
we are promoting Jetty. I said OK! You showed us the following gain over
Tomcat:

Smaller!  (I agree)
Faster!   (I cannot currently agree. :-( )

I was trying to find some tips about how to get the most from Jetty, but
nowhere info. There are no books written about Jetty. Please note I am not
trying to attack Jetty. I believe this is the correct way. But as me many
people here dont see the gain of performance. Some people runs on Windows
and some runs Linux (like me).

I want that this negative stuff go away. But for current purpose I am
seriously think in switching back to Tomcat. I need an application that
performance good in front of users. If the container is a big hairy
monster the users does not care. They only see the response time. I know
what you said in your mail. I will (maybe) do a very bad error in
switching back. But I dont see a solution in the near future. Can you
recommend some docs for trying to get the most from Jetty? Really this is
the purpose of this thread. :-)

What plataform are you using? I am using Red Hat Linux 8.0, PostgreSQL,
and Cocoon 2.1 HEAD. The iron is: AMD Athlon XP 1.7, 512 MB, 60 GB.

If continued in this rethoric, then if a HD of 60GB cost US$ 140.00 and
Jetty use 75MB less that Tomcat, we gain: 17.08 cents! ;-) Its better.

Sorry but I dont share this opinion. I dont need to download Tomcat it is
running since December without problems of any kind on a little more
capable machine as I described above. What I am trying to said is that
today saving
24 MB is nothing (less than 6 cents.).

I and many people here want to have the same thought as you. Please show
us the shine! :-)
