What version of Tomcat is recommended with the latest Cocoon? If I go to their release binaries for Tomcat 4.0.4, it lists a standard version and a lightweight version that does not include any of the optional binaries or an XML parser. It says that JDK 1.4 should come with its own XML parser. http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat-4.0/release/v4.0.4/bin/
I am leaning to the Lightweight build so that I don't have extra stuff on the machine and it would be easier to understand what is really going on. However, I am concerned about the XML parser. We are running an IBM 1.4 JDK on the server. Is that as fast as Xerces? Does Cocoon use the same parser as Tomcat, or does it use its own? Since a fast XML parser is so important for my job, my boss even suggested that I look into seeing if I could get Cocoon to work with the C++ Xerces/Xalan. We have tested a stand-alone C++ Xalan engine against (an older version of) Cocoon, and Cocoon lost by a factor of 10 or 20 on large documents. Is the newest version of Cocoon using a SAX parser? If so, then it should be a lot quicker.
