Sun's Java Web Server superior to Apache?

Serverwatch has posted a review of Sun's Java Web Server which is very positive. My summary of the review is here.

Strange review...

For apache:

  Requests per second:    280.42 [#/sec] (mean)

What kind of hardware was this running on? A 486?

It's been years since I got less than 1000 requests/sec out of even an Apache default install.

They were running the benchmarks on a Sun Netra X1 400MHz server...the authors said "We had a SunFire X4600 available to test with, but it seemed more impressive to test this server on modest hardware."


Make what you will of that...
