Paul, yes, it can... No whatsoever problem if you give him beefy hardware as
well... We work with a stripped-down customized version of 4.0.2 and have no
problems whatsoever in handling an average of 100 h/sec (only servlet hits),
on a dual UltraSparc Iii/400 box with 2 gigs o' ram...

But when you're talking about those load the container is just one of
several key components which actually come into play.

I'm giving a talk at O'Reilly's Open Source Convention this July in San
Diego right on this topic...

It is easy to find out. Install it on your target system, put your applications
in it (i.e. JSP's, Velocity pages, servlets or whatever else you use) and run
'ab' (from Apache) on it. It will come back with the number of pages served per
second.

Do the above for a few days and you'll find out if it's industrial strength or not.

Tomcat can run on its own or behind Apache and other popular web servers.
