I found that while Tomcat3.2.1B works OK on Windows2000 it is just 'slightly'
slower then on Redhat Linux6.2 on the same hardware.
I have a 366 MHz, 256 Mbytes Compaq Armada7400 system with a slow 8Gbyte IDE
drive. I also run Apache on both sides but secure Apache(V1.3.12) on Linux
only.
The problem seems to be CPU overhead. I am running encrypted SOAP tests and I
find that the encrypted traffic runs at about the same speed on Linux than the
not encrypted tests on NT. Why? There is no paging, so why is the overhead? The
same Java Tomcat on both sides and 'hotspot' optimized on NT without
encryption. Win2K should be much, much faster but it is NOT! I had to compile
apache for Linux. But even with a better :-) Linux C compilere the difference
should not be significant? What is going on with Win2K?
Regards.
