I was reading a response from one of the authors in another
thread (I went back to find it to reference, but I lost it in the pile), the author said this book focuses on the administration and performance aspects of
Tomcat 6.0.
Did you (in the book or elsewhere) try to quantify the performance gains with any benchmarks? I'm curious how much of the improved performance is attributable to
Java 6 (I've heard good things there), and how much credit goes to Tomcat. I'm VERY curious to how much it has improved, even though your benchmarks might not be an accurate representation of our systems.
I posted earlier about clustering. Management at my company loves the "Projected versus actual" performance gain charts, even when actual is below expectations. I'm keen to see what the book has in this area.
