#203 Support for NIO connector
Closed: fixed Opened by mharmsen.

Tomcat 7 supplies three different types of 'connectors':

* Basic IO (Java Blocking Connector used since Tomcat 3.x)
* New IO (Java Non-Blocking Connector used since Tomcat 6.x)
* APR (Native Connector used since Tomcat 5.5.x)

Details of these connectors are located here:

  • http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/config/http.html#Connector_Comparison

While the APR native connector relies on the 'tomcat-native' package (which conflicts with 'tomcatjss'), it is not an alternative. However, as we have been using the BIO connector, we should explore the potential benefits of switching to the NIO connector.
