Agreed.
If you only need a web server, use a web server.
I think that the question is not whether to replace
the web server, but whether the web server is needed
for delivering the static content in cases where
there is already a Tomcat. In that case the APR can
be used.
Agreed. Although for simple static content, using
web server caching can result in even better
performance as well... Most "just a web server"
web servers have robust caching built in (as
well as flexible proxying as well).
The subject line does say "Why not?" right? :)
