RE: how to make tomcat faster [jasper error]
I followed your example of importing the 4 jars from 1.7 to 0.4, but my
pages now are not displaying on the basis of:
javax.servlet.ServletException:
org.apache.jasper.runtime.HttpJspBase.getIncludes()Ljava/util/List;

I'm just wondering what may be causing this. My page declare is:
<%@ page language="java" errorPage="errors/error_disp.jsp" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-bean.tld" prefix="bean" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/dds.tld" prefix="dds" %>
if anyone can help me out, I would REALLY appreciate it!

Subject: RE: how to make tomcat faster
well to install jasper from the 4.1.7 you only need to take 2 or 3 jar
files and replace the old ones in tc 4.0.4.
the jar files are from
tc.4.1.7 :
common/lib/jasper-compiler.jar
common/lib/jasper-runtime.jar
common/lib/commons-collections.jar
and if I remember it correctly I also moved the :
common/lib/ant.jar
to my tc.4.0.3 installation.
I am sorry but I will not explain connection pooling here, as it's been
done serveral times and you can search the mail-archive for information
on that matter, I use a pool from www.bitmechanic.com, but there are
several others available. Even sometimes a pool is distributed with the
JDBC driver, I'm not sure about the free one from microsoft, but it
might have some pooling implemented.
Caching is something you need to implement into your jsp-pages, it's
usually done by using cache-tags that implement "fine-grain-cacheing",
this will make you able to decide for how long each segment of your
response is cached. I've been using OSCache, from www.opensymphony.org,
there is also a cache-taglib in the jakarta domain.
My guess is if you do this, your application will get 5 times faster
than it is right now.... maybe even alot more depending on how you do
it.
About the System.out.println, you should just implement Log4j logging,
it's powerfull, and easy to use.
There are many things you could look at, for example, if you are using
HashMaps alot, you might find it alot faster to use FastHashMap, or if
you are using Vectors alot you might find it faster to use/iterate
through LinkedLists, if you are using out.write alot, you might want to
make use of StringBuffer, append to it while rendering the jsp, and only
writing that to the response (one out.write instead of many.. it should
be a little bit faster).
For benchmark-testing I've used both jmeter and "Microsofts
Web-Application Stress Tool", and here I recomend the MS tool, it's very
powerfull, and gives you good reports.
hope it helps
