From Servlet Spec.2.3


For a servlet not hosted in a distributed environment (the default), the servlet container must use only one instance per servlet declaration


Why it is using MUST?.I think we can have pool of instances per servlet declaration.
Bye.

This is a spec and as a container provider you must obey it. Do You want to have your pool of servlets go ahead u r not a container provider

While I don't know the philosophy behind this but if I were to make an educated guess, I would say this restriction is placed inorder to enforce the multi-thread principles of Servlets. Have only ONE instance and create a seperate thread for each request.
