If you want to improve performance even more, ditch EJB altogether. Moving from APR to NIO may be a good move, but it really depends upon your requirements. For instance, APR provides superior SSL performance but if you don't need it, NIO will probably give you better results. >>> b) Lots of people forget to correctly close external resources >>> (files, tcp connections, jdbc resources).

That depends upon what you want to accomplish. You can get messages about JDBC resource management problems without writing any interceptors at all. >>> c) Also, we see incorrect thread programming... > > this sounds good for clusters, right? i'm hoping to use clustering > for the app that i've developed. That depends upon what you mean by "clustering". If you want to serve more clients (or have fault-tolerance), then "clustering" is a good idea. "Clustering" means different things to different people. If you just want to scale horizontally (more app servers) and use simple load-balancing, that can be considered a cluster. In the Java world, most people would only call it a consider it a "cluster" if the app servers actually know about each other -- for instance, if you are using session replication. IMO session replication is a dog, and there are better ways to achieve similar goals that yield much higher performance. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.17 (Darwin) Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iEYEAREIAAYFAlEMFXwACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PC0rACgw7bfEDyVZhHr4V5IWPndxM8Z bAEAnjhZlD0T6tK4jEI1XkszWmVZ4R85 =FwGs -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
