Hi Bruce,
Over the past year I've been working with and testing servlet engines and 
configurations both for my home based web business and my employer.  Here's
the info you need:
You're choices are in-process, as with Netscape server, out-of-process, as
with Apache and mod_jserv, and stand-alone.  I think the reasons for not using
a stand-alone servlet engine are obvious.  In-process vs out-of-process is a
trade off between speed and stability.  For my little home based web business
where speed is a greater issue than stability I use an in-process servlet
engine (JavaWebServer).  But, for my employer where stabilty is as great an
issue as speed we're using Apache with Jrun and the mod_jserv connector.
