If the webapp has been written in a way to allow it, this is definitely possible: write a long-running backend process and have the user click GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO and suddenly you have lots of long-running backend processes running. Since the webapp doesn't try to write to the response during that time, Tomcat happily executes each request to completion without knowing that the client has hung up the phone. > Maybe the OP should just find that user and tell him to stop doing that. :) - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAksn09UACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PAOqgCfaT7o1QW0SNw3ORtD04nrDLnH q78AoIIKIshmnyNbAWBGS3U/wUDkbu7h =SrvE -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
