In my company we use Tomcat 5.5.20 to support a Business Objects Application for management reporting. The Windows 2003 server it is installed on has performance issues which have been narrowed down to excessive disk activity. This is causing low disk idle time and lots of queuing - often causing the Business Objects application to timeout The tool filemon.exe is showing that most of the disk activity is related to querying of directory structures by the Tomcate5.exe process. It is querying pretty much all the time with 20 or 30 reads per second. My question is that is this normal for a Tomcat installation or is this a configuration setting that could be adjusted to cause less frequent activity and would this be recommended ? I have searched the FAQ but could find nothing on this subject. Thanks in advance of a reply and Best Regards Richard Gazey
