Weather.com uses Tomcat to handle a very healthy pile of traffic: http://www.pcmag.com/print_article/0,3048,a=38494,00.asp. The article says that 70% of the content is dynamic. It sounds like they use a separate Apache web tier.

I'm also wondering about the possibility of running a Tomcat server standalone as opposed to using mod_jk.so with Apache to mount webapps with. Would this be more stable, and is there any loss to me if I *don't* use Apache?
