All,

Apologies for the pretty vague question, but I was wondering if looking
at using APR is worth it for me. To answer that, you'll need to know a
bit about my setup.

I'm running Tomcat 5.5 on Linux, connected via mod_jk 1.2.21 to Apache
httpd 2.0.x.

I try to serve all static content using Apache, so sendFile isn't
exactly going to get me anywhere. I have Apache httpd handle SSL for me,
so increased speed through APR/OpenSSL isn't going to get me anywhere,
either.

However, the APR description page suggests that scalability is improved
through the use of socket-polling -- not something that I generally
think of as performance-enhancing.

Can someone comment on the applicability of APR in my case?

And before anyone asks about skipping Apache httpd altogether, I need it
to switch between multiple parallel Tomcats, so I can't dump it (nor do
I really want to).

Thanks in advance,
- -chris
