You could fix that underlying problem (whatever it is), rather than trying to control the trigger that someone else is holding. > Can we change any configuration in tomcat to limit number > of requests per second to our servlet? You can limit the number of threads per <Connector>, but not webapp or servlet. You can write a filter for your webapp that tracks the number of concurrent requests and rejects excess ones. You can implement a ServletRequestListener to do essentially the same thing as described for the filter; see the servlet spec for details. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
