Yes, 10 separate boxes with a single JVM (tomcat instance) running on each box. All boxes are SMP.

I think the clarification is necessary because "application server" in the context of java usually refers to the J2EE or (sometimes) servlet container. Are you taling about 10 instances of tomcat each running on their own box? >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 12/3/2004 11:20:55 AM >>> 10 application servers. -----Original Message----- From: Kwok Peng Tuck [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, December 03, 2004 6:53 AM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: Tomcat/Java and SMP Dan, U have 10 application servers on one machine or 10 application on 10 distinct machines ?

This test tells me that Java is capable of using both CPU's via native threading and some black magic in the windows dll's but that this scenario isn't happening in tomcat. > > Is it possible for tomcat to use more than one CPU or is there a critical flaw in my logic? > > -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] --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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]
