I'm answering the question that you asked, but my answer is less useful than Yoav's :).
With a small number of exceptions (such as POSTs to j_security_check), Tomcat-standalone reads the headers, and leaves the body until your servlet tells it what to do with it. The case of Tomcat-Jk is a bit more complicated, so ask again if you really want to know :).

Does Tomcat just read the headers to create the request object and leave the body of the message in an inputstream for the servlet to read or is all the data in the request read by Tomcat before passing it to servlet? Some of my traffic is more important that other based on headers in the request. I want to prioritise the handling of requests under load conditions. Any input on this is welcome.
