Honestly....no, I didn't.
The mod_jk scared the hell out of me....wouldn't you? :-)

"Using this option will have a strong performance penalty for Apache and
Tomcat. Use this only as a last resort in case of unfixable network
problems."

I'll give it a try tomorrow and see what it gives.

By the way, my last calculation about connection_pool_size was wrong. I
forgot to include the second Apache server. The math would look like this
then:

Apache1 -> 10 server processes x 15 x 4 (tomcats) = 600
Apache2 -> 10 server processes x 15 x 4 (tomcats) = 600, which makes 1200 in
total

Each Tomcat would receive a maximum of 300 connections, which would leave
100 free connections per Tomcat. This would solve the problem that Tomcat
runs out of connections. The thing is...not all of my available Apache
connections can be used:

Apache has 60 threads per server process (10) -> 600 connections.
connection_pool_size per server process: 15. This would mean only 15 of 60
possible connections per server process can actually establish a connection
to Tomcat.

In order to be able to server all Apache connections simultaneously, I would
need 4 more Tomcats?
