Likely repeated encoding into a file format like JPEG, PNG, etc. If you store the files on the disk, you can stream them as often as you'd like. If you get a request for an image that already exists, you can serve it up, otherwise, you can create it. You can even create a hash of lock objects or something so that you can "lock" the file as it's being written so that the file is only written once even if multiple clients are requesting it. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk3D/D0ACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PAYQQCcCy9k9SxH3YSHxekqSzJQKwPz nPAAn3XrYoxXE3E3+FXZ1XfBu3/v9pmW =rQaQ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
