Yes, something like that. I note though that I'd expect that getCount() method implementation to be slow. Whether do you notice the slowness or not depends on the actual count of sessions on your server. > > 3- Thanks a lot for reminding me about the manager tag. I had almost forgot > about it.

I think it would be better than to allow Tomcat to crash. Though it might disrupt service for the legitimate demo clients. .
