Hi, If you have a server with 15 GB of ram (or any large number for arguments sake), does it ever make sense to run multiple instances of tomcat on the same server? (serving http requests for the same web application)
Or can a single instance utilize all the server resources just fine efficiently? The reason I am asking is that I have read that those hosting ruby on rails, or python web applications usually run multiple instances of their respective web server, each running on its own port, and then proxied using haproxy or the like.
