Yeah that was my initial plan. My application doesn't have any static pages at all. I could very well use a standalone Tomcat for this purpose as it has both Http Server and Web Container. What I wasn't sure was the performance. If the standalone is better than having a front end request handler, I am very pleased to use it as is.
