Hi, all
we use SSL tomcat for our web applications.
Since i work in the transport branch, where there is a lot of real time,
automatic data exchange, i can say tomcat alone for SSL'ed services is
very stable,
and even easier to manage than the apache-httpd.
About fastness and scalability is a matter of what you want to do with
tomcat (e.g. more dynamic or static content?).
The only concern you could have is about port 443. On *nix systems where
we launch tomcat with a dedicated user, obviously you are forbidden to
use port 443
(just root can), and forced to redirect to another port at firewall level.

Anthony,
Has anyone done any performance analysis of Tomcat's SSL performance,
especially compared to Apache. It is rumored that Tomcat is unusable
without Apache in front for SSL, but I wonder if that is true.
We use Tomcat SSL without Apache and it has been very stable. The
only issue has been the using port 8443 as some firewalls block access.
