Don't make us guess your problem!!! ---------------------------------------------------------------- We had a similar experience. We originally had a 4 cpu compaq NT enterprise box with 1 gb of RAM, serving one website developed using ASP. It was connecting to a backend CORBA based application using a DCOM to CORBA bridge. The performance was piss poor. We started hosting another website, and the performance went down the tubes completely. Probably some problem in the bridge, but still... We stood to lose a large amount of money because our client was getting ready to pull the plug on the project. I then took a spare single cpu Ultra-5 desktop we had lying around, installed Apache and Jserv on it, wrote a simple servlet based framework (I wish turbine had existed then) and rewrote the site using servlets over a weekend. Currently we still have the same box in production, hosting more than 10 substantial sites, and the system doesn't break a sweat. Without a doubt, apache and jserv saved our asses that day. The 4 cpu compaq box? Collecting dust, waiting till I get time to install linux on it :) Hats off to JServ and the dedicated people who wrote it. naeem > -----Original Message----- > From: Jon Stevens [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, June 27, 2000 4:53 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: FW: JServ > > > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > BEFORE YOU POST, search the faq at <http://java.apache.org/faq/> > WHEN YOU POST, include all relevant version numbers, log files, > and configuration files.
