I am using apache(http)/tomcat combo with JK Connector. I gave up on using JK2 as the connector because I had to get my app deployed. JK2's conifguration was rather complex and documentation wasn't 1-2-3 (simple) enough for me to get it done quickly.
As a side note. There have been significant speed improvements in Tomcat 4.1.x with tag caching. I am not sure that the speed impact is all that big of a deal for serving your pages straight from Tomcat. I know several developers that serve straight Tomcat and are quite satisfied. Usually others serve from apache because it offers support for other scripting languages and reporting tools. So if you are pure java... tomcat would most likely be sufficient.

What is the current best practices as far as using a servlet container fronted by a web server (e.g. tomcat with apache)? On one hand I like the idea of having everything self contained in a war file, and just using the servlet container to serve everything. On the other hand, I have heard it is best to have a web server like apache serve out static content like images. What configuration are you using in a production evnironment?
