method 1:
- have the servlet autoloaded by the web server's servlet engine
- use the servlet's init() method to ensure your business objects are
instantiated
method 2:
- use static initialisation code to instantiate an object manager
which will instantiate your objects

Lots of people might disagree but I think you're right here. Having
an extra network connection and protocol stack can only get in the
way.
If you need such things - fine, if you don't ditch it.
