I too was wondering about the implication of running the app inside a
servlet container. I know that to get it to work as a war file in
JBoss you have to configure a datasource xml file for your database but
I'm not sure if you can give it say 10 or 20 database connections in
that pool or if it just uses the single connection concept still.
There's very little documentation on using WO inside a servlet
container although the concept is fantastic as far as ease of
deployment. In my simple tests it "just works" but I haven't had the
time to figure out if it's feasible for a large scale site or not or if
there are any downsides to doing it this way.

Michael, David and others,
I'm also very interested in performance issues in deployed WO apps.
All of my WO development to date has been for intranet apps with a
maximum 10-20 simultaneous connections, so performance has never been
much an issue. In fact performance has been noticeably better in my
WO apps than the Perl and PHP they replaced.
I've also done some J2EE development recently and in everything I've
read on J2EE, performance and memory footprint is always a primary
concern. What are other people's thoughts on this matter? As David
pointed out, the Apple WO sites seem to approach the problem with a
large number of instances. What about deploying in a servlet
container? The adaptor servlet must be multithreaded as per the
servlet specification, but does it forward incoming requests to a
single instance of the WO application? Is that configurable
somewhere?
BTW, I'm not bashing WO here, I just want to understand the
performance aspect a little better.
Thanks,
Mike
