There isn't anything special that needs to be done with Tomcat to use more than one CPU, it's a function of the JVM and threading. The Sun JVM should use as many CPUs as are available, but keep in mind that each thread the JVM spawns can only use one CPU at a time. Since Tomcat is multithreaded, each request goes to a thread and will use a CPU. I'm not familiar with running Java on Sun, but I would recommend that you make sure you're running the latest version and check for any OS specific JVM settings which may influence threading. -Dave --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
