Comparing Tomcat Performance Across Platforms
,----[ Quote ]
| We measured performance information to see the differences between
| Windows and Linux platforms. The test done against the Windows server
| gave users marginally shorter wait-times by electing to turn some
| traffic away. The Linux server, however, scaled to serving a greater
| number of users with reasonable responsiveness before its maximum
| capacity was reached.
|
| From an administrator's standpoint, the Linux server didn't tie up its
| CPU resources as early and was able to service many more connections
| overall, but some of those connections were consistently delayed,
| leaving users waiting on the other end. However, even given some normal
| delays, the Linux server was still able to serve more users than its
| Windows counterpart.
