Dear J'

What do you mean you are hitting connection limits?! Are you getting errors? What are you seeing that makes you think that is slow?
Is there a database involved in this application?

I assume you are running linux on your server, with a 2.6 kernel.

run the following commands while your box

1)  ps auxH
2)  ps auxH |grep -c java
3)  vmstat 5 5
4)  iostat 5 3

Then we will have a bit of an idea what is going on.

The reason it is hitting its limits is easy: traffic. We easily get enough website traffic to overflow the connection limits unless I have many boxes
available to serve.  I know these can be configured to handle more
connections.  I know that we should be able to do this in the tomcat
server.  That is why I need those tweaking parameters defined.



Thanks,
j

First you should investigate why tomcat is hitting its limits.
Why do you think it does? Which resource is the limit?
Do you have/use any monitoring software? moskito? lambdaprobe?
tomcat-manager?

Leon
