Hi , We have a online shop developed as a suite of JSR168 portlets. On some portlets we list products and images (so there are about 25 images per page + other images). One image has around 250k.
Performance was greatly improved after we put apache httpd in front (images served by apache & gzipped response for js, html, css). We did not note numbers, but the improvement could be seen with naked eye. Now, reading the article, I think we should have tried APR also :) But hei, there are other reasons too for using httpd, such as handful apache modules (e.g. mod rewrite or gzip compression) Note: tomcat 6.0.18, NOT configured with APR running on debian linux sun jdk6 Regards, Marian Simpetru On Thu, 2010-03-25 at 02:39 +0100, Rémy Maucherat wrote: > On Thu, Mar 25, 2010 at 1:50 AM, Mark Thomas <ma...@apache.org> wrote: > > Chris deserves a lot of the credit.
