I don't think that named pipes versus sockets is much of a difference. The real problem is that the database itself has to do a lot of work to set up the connection on it's side (buffer allocation, etc.). Some databases are faster than others. MySQL is very speedy when establishing new connections, whereas Oracle (at least in the past) takes forever. If you are using SSL to communicate with your database over TCP/IP (and though you indicated that you are /not/, I figured I'd mentioned it), then there is a still higher cost associated with establishing the connection. But, I think the cost is really dominated on whatever the database server itself has to do, rather than the actual setup of the "connection" itself. Hope that helps, - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFFgM7I9CaO5/Lv0PARAtmSAKCv2mWhH+01QmVpFTMHBhIBVtF8WgCfSdj/ 8BtCwGvSBJmvbRZI18ZxYKk= =FvJ5 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
