We have been running Tomcat, with Apache as it's web
server, in production mode now for almost a year.
Over 20 million hits monthly from 7 tomcat servers and
6 apache servers, serving over 15 newspapers,
including the Philadelphia Inquirer.
We may just be the biggest Tomcat users out here :)
It works. It's good. We've been happy.
BTW - I'm the lead programmer of KnightRidder.com's
Cofax project. java.sun.com recently wrote an article
about us.
We faced very tough money constraints and fought for
the project. Tomcat was a huge part in it's success.
