Slight confusion about httpd with Tomcat.
Hi, On this page:- http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/connectors.html it says, When using a single server, the performance when using a native webserver in front of the Tomcat instance is most of the time significantly worse than a standalone Tomcat with its default HTTP connector, even if a large part of the web application is made of static files. Does it say when using a single server because it assumes you'd need httpd to do load-balancing if you had multiple servers? I'm asking because we have an environment with multiple servers and a hardware load-balancer so I don't need httpd for load-balancing, so does the above statement apply to me too? (ie. Running without httpd on each server would be give better performance). Or is there something else I haven't considered? Kind regards, Phil. - To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Adding path length and comm links is highly unlikely to ever make things faster. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
