I think the correct answer is it depends. Both containers are robust and should satisfy your needs.
I believe many people choose Tomcat over Jetty because it has a larger following and there is
safety in numbers.

Hi Folks,
One more question popped up in my mind, so thought of troubling u guys
again...:-)
Which one is better Jetty or Tomcat...?
Of course , I went thru some reviews , but there were lot of claims &
counter-claims, which makes the reader very confusing...:-(
Any insight into it...? Why apache chose Jetty as the default container,
when Tomcat was their offering...!
(But IBM WAS-Community Edition , built on Geronimo -1.0 , uses Tomcat as
the default container...!)
Any specific reasons... (technical / political) ...?...:-)
Thanks,
Santosh.
