If you really want speed, you should be writing to your Web server's API
with 'C'.
I think the underlining question is:
Does it make sense from a development and maintenance point of view
to incorporate related functions of a Web application into one servlet
or have many servlets?
Since you have probably done the one servlet - one function approach,
there are a couple of frameworks being developed that will help you
decide if a multi-function servlet is worthwhile.
ServletActionBroker Framework
http://www.gallaware.com/software/ServletActionBroker
Web AppFramework http://www.webapp.de
Frameworks involve a little more work up front but are beneficial in the
long run.
In general, I create a servlet that handles the functionality of a
single class with the use of the ServletActionBroker Framework. If the
class provides many functions, then so does the servlet.

Subject: delema: one servlet - one function, or one servlet many
functions?
Did somebody investigate which way is faster, when a web server selects
a servlet from a list, or when a servlet decides that, for example
/servlets/servlet1?someparams-for-function1
/servlets/servlet2?someparams-for-function2
/servlets/servlet3?someparams-for-function3
or
/servlets/servlet?do-function=1&someparams-for-function1
/servlets/servlet?do-function=2&someparams-for-function2
/servlets/servlet?do-function=3&someparams-for-function3
Thanks,
Dmitry.
