Hi All. I'm currently doing some performance testing in order to convince my superiors that we should move away from the expensive Weblogic app server to a free JBoss/(Tomcat or Jetty) implementation. However, I've run into a bit of a snag as both Tomcat and Jetty appear to be about 50% slower than Weblogic under equivalent loads. Our Web app caches most of it's data so DB access is not a concern ( see http://regi2.adm.ubc.ca:7107/courses/ubcjsp/pubs/courseschedule/main.jsp to see it in action) but it does output a considerable amount of "dynamic" data. In my tests I have apache configured to ProxyPass all requests for dynamic data and to serve all images and static files.
Does anybody have any tomcat performance tips/tricks I can try? I've already turned all the logging as far down as I can When I run it through Optimizeit, 15% of the CPU time is spent in org.apache.catalina.connector.ResponseWriter.write(). Because we use a lot of includes (each page is comprised of 3-4 included JSP files) 7% of the time is also spent in org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.loadJSP(). One thing I'm wondering about - The included JSP files are included through RequestDispatcher.include() (I cannot use the JSP:Include tag) and in order for the data to appear in the correct order, I had to add the tag "<%@ page buffer="0" autoFlush="true" %>" to all of my JSP files. I assume this doesn't help the performance of the system... is there anyway around this? This is not required in Weblogic. I realize performance questions are very difficult to answer, but any info at all would be greatly appreciated. thanks.
