Hi, I have I server with Apache and Tomcat through jk_mod and the perfonrmance is awful. This is mostly confined to images as far as I know, but it is hard to tell.
The images are served from Apache with the help of the following lines: # Serve static content from /resources and /data using Apache instead of Tomcat worker Alias /resources /var/lib/tomcat7/webapps/customer/resources JkUnMount /resources/* customer Alias /data /var/lib/tomcat7/webapps/customer/data JkUnMount /data/* customer It seems that whenever Tomcat is running, Apache grinds to almost standstill, but whenever I tun off apache images seems to spring to life again. I could really use some input. I feel like I have tries all the settings I can find, but any changes seems to make the situation worse and it doesn't get better when I turn the settings back. All the guides I can find focus on servers from 64Mb - 512Mb, but I can get up to 64Gb and some serious processing power. I don't mind using a less than perfect configuration as long as it works. This is the output from version.sh: Using CATALINA_BASE: /usr/share/tomcat7 Using CATALINA_HOME: /usr/share/tomcat7 Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /usr/share/tomcat7/temp Using JRE_HOME: /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle Using CLASSPATH: /usr/share/tomcat7/bin/bootstrap.jar:/usr/share/tomcat7/bin/tomcat-juli.jar Server version: Apache Tomcat/7.0.26 Server built: Apr 1 2013 08:32:04 Server number: 7.0.26.0 OS Name: Linux OS Version: 3.8.0-29-generic Architecture: amd64 JVM Version: 1.7.0_45-b18 JVM Vendor: Oracle Corporation I am using Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.
