The same architecture change that allows tomcat to serve static content quickly (the APR native connector) also allows Tomcat to use OpenSSL instead of the JSSE for SSL which should improve performance.
I have been trying to get it configured using Tomcat 5.5.12 (native APR connector) for the past few days and have hashed out a process with a few other peeps in the list to configure it, but there are still a few small details that need some clarification. -rOcK -----Original Message----- From: Alla Winter [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, December 01, 2005 3:22 PM To: users@tomcat.apache.org Subject: FW: Upgrading Tomcat Thanks for finding this link. Beside the explanation on various packages of TOMCAT, the message in there also suggests that it is not worthy to use APACHE on a top of TOMCAT due to TOMCAT now is handling static pages almost as good as APACHE. But what about handling SSL - somewhere I read that APACHE handles encryption much better than TOMCAT. Is it still true? -----Original Message----- From: Caldarale, Charles R [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, December 01, 2005 3:05 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: RE: Upgrading Tomcat > From: Rhino [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: Upgrading Tomcat > > I'm having trouble finding the note you mentioned in the mailing list > archives.

I never use the .exe since it's missing the .bat (and .sh) scripts, which are useful for debugging.
