Hi, If you want to use Tomcat for high loads, I suggest you to use apache/mod_jk and a cluster of Tomcat instances. With this solution you'll have load-balancing and failover for a lot of users. I don't use a HP very powerful, so, for the performances, I don't know if it is better to have one instance or several instances, but for the administration (applications upgrades, ...) and failover it is better to have several ones.
For high performances, some readings : http://cvs.apache.org/~woolfel/benchmark_summary.pdf http://cvs.apache.org/~woolfel/tc_results.html http://brandlay.com/wojtek/publ/tomcat.jsp http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=tomcat-user&m=110906276815396&w=2 http://www.servlets.com/cos/javadoc/com/oreilly/servlet/CacheHttpServlet.html http://simpleweb.sourceforge.net/performance/comparison.php a tool to test performances : Jmeter (http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/) Regards.
