Another reason for <Executors> is for them to be /shared/ by <Connectors>. If you need to, say, listen for traffic across 10 ports (okay, it's a bit contrived... maybe across 10 IPs on port 80), then you'll need 10 <Connectors>. Rather than having to guess at which webapps will be the most popular and allocate threads to each thread pool accordingly, you can simply point them all to the same <Executor> and then all <Connector>s share the thread pool. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkquT3wACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PD4aQCfRLMjiGv+82ALmVFfuPqIdaoP QRQAoMErvt9IFOKpgIo11n2rmmkXTC5q =84r9 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
