This isn't the problem. Tomcat is calling my servlet, but because the
machine is so busy it is taking a long time to construct the response, and
hence the request is resubmitted before it has sent back the response. I
need a way to tell the browser that the server has received the request and
that a response will be along shortly. Is this what the SC_CONTINUE header
does, or is there another header I can send.

Thanks.

Hi David!

You can commit the response, and then the request will not be
resubmitted. But it's difficult, since the problem was that Tomcat is
not honoring the requests, to begin with.

In iPlanet, you can tell how many requests can be queued; it would be
interesting to know whether you can do the same in Tomcat. I know how to
configure a thread pool, but not queue size!

Un saludo,

Alex.
