OK, another newbie-ish question here.
I am using Tomcat 5.5.x with APR/native libraries on Windows 2003 x32 or
Windows 2008 x64 to serve applications from the US to Asia-based
clients.
We encrypt everything using SSL, from Login page onward, with
<transport-guarantee> of CONFIDENTIAL.
All URLs are configured as relative, i.e., "/images/picture.png",
"/APP1?param1=value....", etc.
We use Tomcat as the web server with no intervening proxies,
load-balancers, accelerators, etc.
Response time is noticeably slow (based on complaint level) and I am
looking for ways to improve it.
Bigger server?
Will setting the HTTPS connector "compression=on" actually compress the
data for HTTPS?
What makes you think that compressing things is going to improve
matters? Doing the compression is an overhead itself.
What's slow about your app and how do you know it?
Does it compress before or after applying the encryption?
And, in case it's relevant, here is the relevant excerpt from the
web.xml file we use:
<security-constraint>
<web-resource-collection>
<web-resource-name>Everything</web-resource-name>
<url-pattern>*.jsp</url-pattern>
<url-pattern>*.html</url-pattern>
<url-pattern>*.js</url-pattern>
Brevity:
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
<url-pattern>/APP1</url-pattern>
<url-pattern>/APP2</url-pattern>
If those actually represent real webapps, with their own
WEB-INF/web.xml, the lines above don't do anything.
p
</web-resource-collection>
<user-data-constraint>
<transport-guarantee>CONFIDENTIAL</transport-guarantee>
</user-data-constraint>
</security-constraint>
Any assistance would be much appreciated.
