Re: [jetty-dev] Jetty Newbie ( Urgent )

Hi Jesse,

Thanks for your reply. So if i use Embedded Jetty and write a simple handler ( like HelloWorld.java example). Is this HelloWorld service requests automatically executed in multiple threads ? or just a single thread for every request, by default ? Do i not have to write any piece of code to spawn different threads for different requests for the HelloWorld webservice ?

Thanks

either will work

jetty has easily served many 10's of thousands of requests per second
with sub second latency

 Is it possible in Embedded Jetty approach ? If

both are possible with either approach, a traditional webapp or
embedded jetty.  the key is in using either jetty-continuations or the
async servlets provided in servlet-api 3.0 in order to scale

there is little need for you to tune jetty at this point in your
experience...get your app working and react as needed for performance
improvements.  most of our clients don't have to tweak the default
settings at all

cheers,

jesse
