I'll go a head and port the existing jsp pages to ASP.net, for the
time being I'll drop locale for English only, I can add that later off of
the existing xml translations. Also I won't add build logic. I'll just
include the Nutch .net assemblies. But building off of the Nutch src tree
would be more ideal.

Tomcat as a whole is not bloat, but adding it to an existing web server
model such as Apache or IIS then yes I would argue its bloat. The ASP.net
pages are simple an alternative to the jsp pages not a replacement.

There are a lot of variables to consider here. To best answer your question
I would say there is no performance loss since I convert java byte code to
.net byte code. The rest would be more of a jit vs jit and application
server vs application server. It would easier for me to simple create the
pages and bench mark against the jsp version.

Depends on whose defining the infrastructure, If my site is primary ASP.NET
or lets say PHP. Why would I run Tomcat?
