I cannot tell for your exact configuration, but for a single server, Java application + XML Tomcat 5.5.4 seems faster than 4.1.30 on JRE 1.4.2_05 Why don't you try the 5.5.4?
-----Original Message----- From: Dan Foreman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, December 03, 2004 5:25 AM To: Tomcat-User Subject: FW: Tomcat 5 notably slower than tomcat 4 Hi, While upgrading application servers from Tomcat 4.0.5 to Tomcat 5.0.29 I am noticing slower browser response when hitting the tomcat 5 servers. We use tomcat as an application server for a data collection application. In one of our larger installs where there are 10 application servers, I have started upgrading to Tomcat 5 from Tomcat 4.0.5. All 10 application servers have identical configuration (less disk space differences), 2x1.4GHz (SMP), Win2k, 2GB RAM. All 10 are running j2sdk 1.4.2_02. Just off the cuff, I'd say it's 15% slower than tomcat 4.0.5. Watching CPU performance, the hardware is not being taxed on either the old version or the new one, but the time for the browser to update is slower. I'm fairly certain that the network is not a contributing factor as all servers are on the same 1 GB backbone and I'm testing to the same endpoint over the internet. The tomcat 5 install has no special configuration, no session replication (I removed the balancer, ROOT and server web applications from the filesystem). Anyone else seen this? Any ideas where to look? -Dan --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
