Hi Don,

As someone mentioned the network can imit you. If your bandwidth utilization is
at 60% or over you are in trouble since collisions start to become a serious
issue.
Ah, that's something I had not thought of. I'm running ~80% network utilization at the times when I see the trouble, so that might well be the root of the issue.

Thanks!

Also, I have measured around 600microseconds for resonse time when using
localhost and running the client on the same server as Tomcat but that was still
going through the network card om by motherboard. I looked ito gettting a faster
network card but I kept hearing 2ms was the best you could get but I got down to
1.2ms running from my laptop to my motherboard so my router (I have a high speed
gaming router) and network circuitry on my systems is the current limiting
factor and not Tomcat.

I've thought about that, but I would think I would be maxing out the cpu
if tomcat's processing were the limit.  I'm running only about 8% cpu
usage across all 4 cpu's.

Hi David,

I recently ran performance tests against version 7 and during that whole
process
discovered at best for a single instance of Tomcat 7 running on a 6 core AMD
2.8Ghz processor the best I could get running the client on the server and
using
loopback network (Localhost) was around 32K per second hitting a servlet that
had no code. I was using APR also. By adding the network domain name where it
forced the requests to go through my gaming router I could only get 2.2K
requests per second. If I ran the client from a laptop on the lan I got around
the same number.

I have not looked into adding another instance of Tomcat but I suspect as you
add latency and some form of code in a servlet it might get down to 100
requests
per second. Remember if a single request takes 10msec at Tomcat and depending
upon the amount of data and latency (say 100msec) you are already down to 100
req per second at best. You might only get that at best.

Subject: Performance 5.5 vs 6 vs 7

How might I expect the performance of 7 to compare to a late rev of 5.5 or
6.0.x, running under JRE 6?  Specifically, my application has lots of small,
simple requests, and the app does nothing but de-obfuscate (it's not really
sophisticated enough to call it encryption) the data and save it to disk.  But
it does a LOT of them, 60 to 100 per second during normal operation, more
during
very busy times.  The overall average when I checked last week was about 60
requests per second for the previous 10 days, around the clock,>4.5M per day.

I spent quite a bit of effort in optimizing my app last year, and got some big
gains in it, but now I'm again starting to not be able to keep up with the
increased flow as our customer has doubled their number of installations, so
I'm
looking elsewhere for potential improvements. I've already checked my
connection
bandwidth, and that still has some headroom, though not a lot.  Can I expect
TC
6 or 7 to handle larger numbers of very simple requests than 5.5 can?

Dave
