Don't forget about the graphics.  Using java to read large blocks of bytes
off the drive and dump them down a socket is, uh, sub-optimal.  We use
Apache/Resin/JBoss because even though 100% of our pages are dynamic (even
the 'static' ones due to URL rewriting) graphics aren't ideally served
through a java based server.
