Re: [development] What is the best web server to host drupal, (like Apache, Apache Tomcat, etc) as far as performance, security?

[Anth]

Just for reference (having come from a JSP/Servlet background), Tomcat 
is purely Apache's JSP container with just enough webserver to run 
standalone.  Even if you were using Tomcat, if you were going to 
production you'd run the container in a full blown Apache httpd with 
httpd passing jsp/servlet requests off to the tomcat container.
