I prefer Jetty as I like the name and the fact that it is lightweight (not many dependencies, package can be stripped down to the bones). Also, I allways liked Jetty in Eclipse because you can start it as an run configuration, while with /the old/ versions of the Tomcat plugin, you allways had to manually switch between projects. The good things about the Tomcat plugin though, is that the class loading is more realistic (which sometimes can be a nuisance as well), and that the Tomcat plugin is easier to setup for running more than one project at a time.

Also, one level deeper, I prefer Jetty's source code (which is very easy to understand) to Tomcat's (also not too difficult, but less easy than Jetty I think). There rare cases your debugging your app server too, that's a plus for Jetty imo.

Performance-wise, I think they are all pretty good, though the last comparisons I saw (about a year ago) Tomcat even beat Resin, which has long been #1 before that.

My 2c,

Eelco

This is very cool.  I wonder if Tomcat can do this too.

Is Jetty really easier to use than Tomcat?  If so, maybe I'll switch.


I'm not switching actually. I use this setup to develop and when I'm done I package up a .war and deploy it in JBoss with Tomcat :-)
