it all depends on the hardware, webapp and a whole bunch of other things.
the best way to find out is to stress test it with varying level of threads, preferably increased in regular increments. once you get a baseline, you can then try increasing the max processors in server.xml and repeat the same set of tests. Do this as many times as needed to figure out what settings work best for you. Depending on your webapplication and the response time, you may also want to try increasing the acceptCount. Performance tuning takes time and consistent methodology. It's also beneficial to set a thresh-hold for what you consider to be reasonable response time under heavy loads vs light loads. hope that helps. peter Tomcat Forum wrote: > > Hi Everybody, > Iam having some problems with simutaneous users on the Tomcat 4.0 > server.
