FOP Scalability

[Chris . Brown]

***************************************************************************** This email and any files transmitted with it are intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed. ***************************************************************************** I have FOP 0.20.3 running successfully on my web server and was wondering what the best way to control the scalability of it. There is a possibility that 30 + users may be requesting a PDF page at the same time and as you all know FOP is not too kind on memory usage. The PDF being produced are only 10 pages max so its just the cost of the processing on the web server that is the problem. I have seen ideas about limiting the number of FOP processes running at one time but I dont want to have users waiting for minutes for their PDF page to be displayed. Does any one have any other ideas ?
