Error - it shouldn't be in common...
jk_jni_worker uses JNI to start tomcat in the same process with
Apache(2.0) or IIS/NES and uses in-process calls instead of TCP/IP.
It should be the fastest - but it's the hardest to debug, and it hasn't
been tunned too much. ( it is similar with the NES servlet container,
which runs in-process too, or with mod_perl/mod_php ).
