Hi Tom, maybe you're right and I have no idea but I spent some time earning a living out of WebLogic migrations ;-) Yes, migrating away from version 8 is usually counted by years. But our friend already made it to 9.3. Upgradig to 11 should be a matter of days. Checking another version of web

One obvious thing to look at is physical memory and paging. I have a hunch that WLS is more memory-consuming than Tomcat leaving less for iText which may cause paging to occur. Also, profiling was suggested, and I agree that it is a very good idea to help pinpoint the source of the problem. /Kl
