I would agree with Chuck - Tomcat standalone has been a far better and robust solution for since 5.0.18 was released - and hoping it will improve (actually am sure it will) with 5.5.x!
I did use TC 3 and 4 with Apache - which was never ideal or stable (maybe my fault that) - but TC 5+ is really great!

Offering performance advice based on a 3-year old Tomcat is highly inappropriate. The 5.5.12 version delivers static content at essentially the same speed as Apache httpd. Suggested reading (note that this is about 5.5.4, and 5.5.12 is yet faster): http://tomcat.apache.org/articles/benchmark_summary.pdf - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
