Hi Tal, William-

Thanks for your feedback!

Regarding putting the JVM behind Apache or some other proxy: well,
we're likely to have to use a load-balancer soon, but aside from that,
I find it frustrating to put something in front of the JVM- shouldn't
java web servers be considered just as robust and fast as ones written
in C or something else?  It's not like java web servers are
inefficient CGI scripts or something, yet everyone is always saying to
stick things in front of them.  I'm not suggesting this is wrong, just
that it's frustrating :-)

Wouldn't it be nice if products like Jetty, Simple, etc had
appropriate built-in features to combat various misuse?  It seems like
if they're serious about being web servers, they should consider these
features to be important.

Anyhow, I'll probably try to block a few things at the Simple or
Restlet Filter level, just to make myself feel better...

thanks,
Dave Fogel
