Other (non-exhaustive) notes:

• Stress test your webapp. You can do this via JMeter, siege, flood, and other tools. Google is your friend.
• Tweak your UNIX box! Look at ulimit and kernel parameters.
• Bad design will hurt performance.
• Look at JProbe, or OptimizeIt, or New Relic, or other profiling tools. Lots of people recommend these tools. This is not an endorsement for them, I just notice other people like them.

Questions

1. Is Tomcat faster than serving static HTML pages than Apache httpd?
2. Is there an application-specific comparison between Tomcat and Resin or other containers?
3. Is there a comprehensive, up-to-date, detailed benchmark comparing various servlet containers, including Tomcat?
4. How do I configure apache tomcat connectors for a heavy load site?
5. How do I make Tomcat start up faster?
