Jonathan & Christian - Thanks for your input.
So in summary for my set up, best option is looking like:
1) Using Tomcat (64-bit) as a servlet and using the Geoserver WAR file
2) Use JRE (unless further monitoring needed, then use JDK)
3) Use JRE6
4) Run Geoserver as a "Windows service" (through/via Tomcat)
5) Use 64-bit JRE so no JAI (anyone have experience on performance
differences?)
6) Upgrading to new point releases; as now using Tomcat, more options
available than via standard Windows installer
I'd appreciate it if anyone else has any further thoughts on these points. I
never quite grasped the reason to use Tomcat as Geoserver works out the box
with Jetty; felt like it added an extra layer for little benefit, but starting
to see why.
Thanks again,
Rob
