I personally think it's entirely reasonable to support Java 6 but you should encourage your customers to test with Java 7 and upgrade ASAP. Again, there are potentially un-patched security vulnerabilities in there that will never be fixed. >> 3. 128 MiB JVM memory?

Don't feel like you have to defend yourself: we ran for several years in production with a 64MiB heap and did just fine. On the other hand, you might want to consider offering bigger heaps than 2GiB. These days with 64-bit JVMs, people are starting to expect insanely-large heaps in certain cases. > FYI - our web team are updating the site right now to offer Tomcat > 8. You might want to point-out that Tomcat 8 hasn't been released and is currently in ALPHA status. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.14 (Darwin) Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJSXqODAAoJEBzwKT+lPKRYW58QAKNBszyA9jyXihsNxw3G228T biY/GCfXrH+s2z6lXNL+LYUZhHpH+eLEzFD5q1Pe6o1nBHqRptY1ZtdJE87/nBfL y0OutDA5CteqKlFNDHM6+XwGHCTnIwCfa/HNav3JXoLCaNvgGUlKw47RHuGgr7DC K7I+dhd9Z98Qf4CWTXAkmryqh2ZYHnq0jPm03KiGPYAWpG1cYsrEINLnSo6iOlf9 JsDwqQtpMbVZ2Y0n0kngwoSSZBEtkHhVHYm4ZlmA0cltX3ABltUNFnKzUheRZe4B Eoiy38kewxvtfZRYyNeGcGmKpA4w7WmicU1IxGG5V1DPh59V66ZsIYa7+fbQJWBE M9efbG96/OUT0IEhFtHXKSdoNQNn/sneDwiU8r25C54/uuivfR4jbp2PlBt3GxMH ing6SHHeeM1/a7+ymzss6wbJNp0DTdFKc/t+tj4jIO7BsDhY8Yzl4d2dw3OgDz7h vncyQ2kwzUQ/1VyJ1uwRvpiEu1yyvWDP2Kwkf8u+/zAxFpALeUx1RynnMa19Ggdw hLWKqNz5x6GSt4BvQVEuMvqglPNsHial2Y/XuuSU5MLCg7pPEYZFdKY3QZp4GPlR rLdvcpm7jXP6OGF9VKNm6cI+6GomWVtyqbdVeln48CPi7PJBoiHDMSu4ATddE7bu b3SI/vax+4L+vjlGB4Ml =ShSd -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
