You never look at the absolute numbers. Sometimes, people publish benchmarks (like this Tomcat sucks article), and assume this will help me, when it actually really doesn't, since it doesn't tell me on what I should work. What you do is: - Run TC in optimizeit - Use some load testing tools to generate some load, like ab (there's also this tool made by M$ ...) Then look at the profile. Then, when you're done removing the hotspots, you get get the "feel good" factor, and look at the absolute ab numbers, which don't mean anything in the real world. So I don't have any interesting absoulte numbers to publish because: - they don't really mean anything. - ab runs bad on Windows. I have some (old) results with the M$ tool. (tested with 4.1 a long time ago; I have no idea if I did it right) - static (the old index.html, I think) * HTTP/1.1: 500 req/s 100% CPU * Coyote HTTP/1.1: 575 req/s 85% CPU - HelloWorldExampleServlet * HTTP/1.1: 413 req/s * Coyote HTTP/1.1: 702 req/s > How about this for a concrete suggestion: Add "come > up with a set of benchmarks and performance goals" as > part of the proposal.
