GF v Tomcat performance

Hi all,

I was giving a presentation on GlassFish earlier this week and someone
asked if we had performance numbers for GF vs Tomcat. Do we have
anything out there already to share? He's using Apache's web server
with Tomcat to serve up the dynamic content and was wondering how GF
would compare.

Thanks,
Bobby

Hi

the public comparison can be found here (but Tomcat isn't fronted by
Apache):

http://weblogs.java.net/blog/sdo/archive/2007/05/how_to_test_con.html

It would be interesting to see how Apache+GF perform vs Apache+Tomcat.
I'm tempted to think GF will be faster because of the performance
improvement we did to the WebContainer. Note that when you are using
mod_jk, both Tomcat and GF skips their connector implementation (Coyote
for Tomcat, Grizzly for GlassFish).

A+
