> Why not use squid?
One view: Why go through another user-level process when you can simply
redirect the socket connections via iptables for fewer CPU cycles and
less RAM?
Another view: squid may be faster at serving static content, so
interposing it could be useful if you suspect that is a bottleneck.
Recent Tomcats are faster than older Tomcats at serving static content.
My view: It depends on your mix of content and your webapp. In general,
it's not possible to know which is more efficient *in your environment*
without benchmarking it.
