Subject: Servlet/JSP engine recommendations please...


> Hi all:
>
> I am picking tools for a large JSP/Servlet project, and tried installing
> WebSphere 3.0 Standard Edition along with IBM HTTP Server 1.3.6 on an NT
> machine with 128M RAM.
>
> To my great surprise, WebSphere wouldn't even come close to running in
128M!
> Upon further investigation, I see that IBM recommends a minimum of 512 M
> just to run the service. For the life of me, I cannot figure out why it
> needs all that memory - so I am a little leery of it know.
>
> I am currently looking around for other solutions.
>
> The main attractions of WebSphere were:
>
> 1. Integrated debugger (as far as I am concerned, this is absolutely
> essential!)
>
> 2. Built-in support for database-based security tables/realms and ACL's.
>
> 3. Built in support for connection pool using the JDBC 2.0 standard
> extensions.
>
> 4. Tool integration with VisualAge, WebSphere Studio and DB2.
>
> We will also require speed, scalability and load  balancing (I don't think
> we really need failover support).
>
> Does anyone  have strong opinions about an engine that supports debugging?
>
> (I notice that Caucho's Resin product claims incredible benchmark
> performance (http://www.caucho.com/articles/benchmark.html). - any
> experience with it?)
