Is it possible that tomcat sometimes randomly kills a request, does not process a 
request or queues a request indefinitely, thereby blocking a client that tries to read 
back the response to its request? Could this be possible when a servlet communicates 
with the clients using only raw data and InputStreams/OutputStreams? And: is it a good 
idea to develop a game server for playing games like chess, chequers or draughts with 
tomcat, considering the fact that tomcats main purpose is to act as web application 
server using a strict request-response paradigm. Is it safe to assume that every 
request made by a client always yields a proper response, also when using raw data 
transfers? Also when there's a really high volume of requests to a single servlet?

Don't get me wrong: I do *not* think there's something wrong with tomcat! As a matter 
of fact I have really good experiences with it using it for web applications!!
