All this talk about Orion's benchmarks definitely makes it attactive.
I didn't notice that Orion's web server supports SSL -- I assume this
is due to some sort of export restriction? Is there any way to have
secure servlets/JSP/EJBs, etc?
And I agree w/ Zvi, a java-based HTTP engine that beats a native engine
hands down? Are there any Orion users out there that can vouch for this?
I've been using JRun since it's first beta release -- their big selling
point to
me was their proprietary JSP Taglets. But now that JSP 1.1 has a spec on
that...and Orion supports it...might be time to change??
