That's a good question. I'm unable to answer that at the moment. Per your
question, I'm doing some reading on this now; since this is a JSF web
application / project, I'm referring to some BalusC blogs/answers on
stackoverflow. According to this one response of his[1], I assume that I am
using Tomcat default servlet, but I could be mistaking here. Also, please
note, my container is TomEE 1.6.0 SNAPSHOT (which is Tomcat 7.0.37,
currently).

This is the first time I have heard about 'range request', but since you
mentioned it, I am seeing it mentioned elsewhere.
