Tony, I agree with Joshua: quite complicating things for yourself. It sounds like you are trying to solve a performance problem of some sort but speaking from experience those are highly dubious pursuits unless you have a very, very well qualified issue. Otherwise, it's purely academic IMHO. I don't remember where I read this but the rules for performance tuning are something along the lines of: 1. Don't 2. Don't yet (for experts only) My advice, don't worry about performance until there is a qualified performance issue (i.e. one identified by a customer/end user) and stick with the Apache/mod_jk/Tomcat reverse proxy configuration since it's an industrial strength solution.
