I do also think that solution 1 sounds as the best choice, though I do not have any figures to back it up, either. But what if there is a cluster of JBoss nodes containing the business logic? Is it then wise to have embedded web servers running in the same VM as the JBoss server on each node? The clustering documentation mentions having Apache mod_jk as a load balancer, using sticky sessions, in order to be able to have web applications participate in the cluster. I guess that using a hardware load balancer improves performance compared to mod_jk, but is this setup, even with a fast load balancer, still better than having separate web server(s) talking RMI to the JBoss cluster?
I'm only considering JBoss 3.2.6 here. I haven't yet read much about the features in JBoss 4.
