I have previously experienced very slow form processing under Netscape 4.76
using Tomcat 3.1. We were not using Struts, but rather our own MVC model at
the time. I even created a test case with only a servlet to post to and it
took a few seconds for the servlet to get the response. This behavior was
only under Netscape and did not appear in the newest Netscape release. I
tested the post by putting a system.out.println as the first item in the
servlet body. I would click the submit button in Netscape and time it. It
usually took 3 seconds before I would see the system.out.println. In any
version of IE and in the latest Netscape release, the response time was very
quick (<500 ms). I would be interested in testing this application under
Tomcat 3.2 now.
