Deployment question: is Jackrabbit process-safe?

[Esmond Pitt]

I have a clustered web-app that uses Jackrabbit. I presently have Jackrabbit
in yet another Tomcat and am using RMI to communicate with it. However it
occurs to me that I could just include the JackRabbit API jars in the webapp
and call it directly, *provided* multiple copies of the Jackrabbit API will
co-operate correctly on the database. Is this the case?
