Your best bet is to measure the performance of your webapp with and without APR. Since you're not using SSL and have limited static content, I suspect you won't see much of a difference. > Is installing the APR considered a 'must do' for anyone > looking to maximize the performance of Tomcat in production? > Or is this something in the category of 'not neccessary/ > adviseable unless you need it'? I'd put it in the latter category, unless you measure a noticeable throughput gain with it. Including APR does reduce portability, since you'll need a different native library for each platform, including just going from a 32- to 64-bit JVM. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
