Hi Ricky,

as I'm kind of in the business, too, I'm contacting you privately in order not
to p*ss off the others.
AFAIK the current release 2.1 has two drawbacks: with Apache on NT it doesn't
support HTTP/1.1, but only 1.0 (btw: JServ speaks proper HTTP/1.1). The other
(minor) thing is, that using ServletExec each Servlet has to write something to
the outputstream otherwise the stream is not closed (think of HTTP Statuscode
204 - No Content, this probably fails).
Performancewise I believe JServ is faster than ServletExec (both
JDK1.2.2/NT/Apache). But if you need an aweful lot of speed, you might want to
consider using a pure Java server like Suns Java Webserver (which I personally
think is a good choice anyway) or w3c's jigsaw. This is beause each time a
servlet is requested a tcp connection between Apache and the plugin is built up
and this is certainly slower than having only a single process. On the other
hand JServ gives you the opportunity to do some load balancing with multiple
servers.

My own engine jo! is not for sale yet and currently supports only HTTP/1.0,
which is a drawback - but hopefully by the end of October there will be an
improved version.

Cheers,

-hendrik
