It's tough to decide what would be best for you based upon someone
else's vague methodology and your vague requirements :)

I would recommend doing your own performance testing in your own
environment: it doesn't take much to fire-up JMeter or ApacheBench to
test these configurations.

One thing that the author of that comparison did was use
ProxyPassMatch which uses a regular expression to match the URL.
JkMount does not use a regular expression and so that may have had an
effect -- the comparison doesn't say what kind of requests were being
served. If this was a test of static content (which is really all you
need to test the connector), then regular-expression overhead might
have made a big difference.

When doing your own performance testing, I highly recommend that you
try to compare configurations that are as similar as possible to each
other. Otherwise, you are lying to yourself ;)
