I totally agree with Michel. We developed a JSF 2.0 application using Tomcat
as the web container. Tomcat is as stable as the application you develop.
The system we develop hosts a RIA application based on ICEFaces for almost
5000 users and after a lot of debugging and jvm fine tunning, we now have an
almost rock solid product. Note that the debugging was done over the app,
and the jvm fine tunning is a most for this kind of application. Tomcat
works fine with just some modifications in the config files. Actually we use
the latest tomcat 6 running over linux CentOS.
Also we use Tomcat 6 for a landing page for a Telco Operator. The landing
page was developed using JSP technology and implements Google SSO. This
applications actually serves 20000 users, with almost 15000 hits on a daily
basis. Again, the main stabilization process was done in the application,
not Tomcat, and Tomcat works just fine.
Hope this information was helpful.
