re: optimizing Tomcat 5 for webservices, that is using encryption

[James Black]

When I had rolled out my application, where the client is on about 400 
machines, we ran into problems when the useage was too high, but didn't 
have time to figure out what was going on.

One thing I noticed is that one field in the webservice may be 
encrypted, and decrypting is a slow operation, at least slower than I 
thought.

Are there any good resources on optimization, where I can determine a 
good number of threads to have created initially, for example, as well 
as any other optimizations we may do?

We are moving to JDK1.5.0 on the production machines soon, so that 
should help, but we will not be moving to Tomcat 5.5 until it comes out 
of beta.

Thank you for any suggestions.
