Webapps are not removed unless they are undeployed. > I'm most concern in keeping the tomcat runtime memory to a > minimum then how fast a page is loaded. Memory is cheap, annoyed users aren't; you might want to rethink your priorities. Of course, you should insure your webapps aren't resource hogs, be that memory or any other finite entity. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
