Tomcat people did not create it - APR has been around for years. It's part of many products (e.g., subversion). What the Tomcat group did was provide a JNI interface to APR to allow its use with Tomcat directly, primarily because OpenSSL is much faster than the pure Java SSE equivalent. APR provides no significant benefits for unencrypted content. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
