> How do you think capacity planning should be approached ? The _only_ way is to actually benchmark your application(s). Tomcat itself adds very little overhead, so it really depends on the characteristics of the webapps. This is frequently non-trivial (e.g., involving data base accesses over a network connection, static file retrieval, etc.), so the estimation has to be based on the application architecture - and only you know that. Hardware resources are exceptionally inexpensive these days, so it's rare for throughput or response time to be limited by the server speed and capacity; instead, it's usually synchronization points in the webapps that limit performance. - Chuck PS. Note that a few things in Mladen's article are a bit out of date, such as one Tomcat thread being dedicated to each connection.
