Hi modperl guys,

Anybody can confirm about this performance issue?

Hi,
This is very interesting. The 30% degradation of performance with this
set-up is a lot. What would you recommend as an ideal situation.

Cheers.
Suresh.

Hi Marc-Antoine,

It was actually me that found the 30% slowdown.  Thanks for confirming this
- that's most useful.

Cheers,

Eoin.

Hello Filip,

my personal experience after testing both tomcat and apache in front of
tomcat for a web application using servlet/jsp and java classes, is that the
ajp protocol used by apache (written in C) and tomcat (written in java) for
the servlet to handle the HTTP requests, is slowing down the performances,
for something like 30% like you said.

hope this helps.

Sorry to sound rude, but why would we care? This is a Java issue, nothing
to do with mod_perl.
