Simone,
Thank you for your comments and the link.
Regarding:
5) Use 64-bit JRE so no JAI (anyone have experience on performance
differences?)
"The difference will not be dramatic. In most cases it will be 5% to
10%."
Is that a 5-10% reduction in performance? Is it still worth using the 64-bit
version of Tomcat/Geoserver, as opposed to the 32-bit version with the JAI
extensions?
Kind regards,
Rob

Ciao Robert,
please, read my comments inline below...
In addition at this link you can find:
- a document useful for creating a clustered set up on windows using tomcat and
IIS. There are a few tips and tricks there.
- an skeleton instance of Tomcat preconfigured to run on windows with multiple
instances of geoserver
Here is the link:

I agree with all these steps.

The difference will not be dramatic. In most cases it will be 5% to 10%.

Correct. You only need to stop tomcat remove the old war and drop the new one.
Make sure to:
-1- use an external data directory
-2- back up the current data dir prior to an upgrade
-3- put data outside the data directory (backups are easier to perform).
