I noticed that too. Sun's Web Site is really slow these few days. Any news on being hacked? And how it happened?
Tomcat will automatically look for a cached copy of your dtd's on your local machine if it cannot find one online. That's why it's slower. One way to solve this is use a local copy all the time . There were a few discussion on this before.

Hi, we use Tomcat 5.0.16 under linux and all of our web.xml's are starting with a standard "public" dtd tag, i.e. <!DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.2//EN" "http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/web-app_2_2.dtd"> or <!DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN" "http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd"> Everything worked fine until duesday: java.sun.com was unreachable and the server startup time was dramatically increased. We know that a local copy of the dtd schema is included in the servlet-api.jar, but how can we force tomcat reading the local copy of the dtd without changing our web.xml's ?
