Interestingly enough, their results suggest that the "Tomcat HTTP JIO"
connector (presumably the basic Coyote connector without APR) performs
the best. The workload (50k requests) relative to the type of machine
used (64-bit, presumably fast CPUs) seems like too little work to get a
good sample.

Note that they use requests-per-second as their metric and not transfer
rate, but those numbers are so closely related as to be synonymous for
comparison purposes.

I will have to start testing prefork httpd (my current configuration)
against worker httpd to see how they compare.
