Any and all performance improvements would be greatly appreciated.
For those who have not seen it, Sun is touting their "SunONE is better performed / more scalable than Apache 2 + Tomcat" benchmark. While Tomcat and mod_jk[2]'s sole goal is not to scale and perform every bit as well as every other web server / servlet engine alternative and benchmarks are often full of lies, I think it is in everyone's best interest to keep an eye out for opportunities to ensure Tomcat 5 remains competetive in terms of performance and scalability.
Good for them. However, I'd like to point out that mod_jk 2 is not the best for throughtput. The HTTP connector is. Performance wise, it can't really improve anymore, but I'll try to optimize memory usage to get more scalability (I think it's good enough right now, though).
I realize that the extra inter-process hop and marshalling incurred by mod_jk[2] are bound to cause some reduction in throughput.
I was actually more concerned by the (lower) scalability plateaus they are showing for Tomcat than the performance per se.
