Yeah, that's the crux of it I suppose. Do you know how much of tomcat assumes single thread request / response? After the request pops out of tomcat (via axis), the processing on our side is already asyncronous: - Receive request - Pass request on for asyncronous processing - Internal request processing completes - Unblock tomcat thread, allowing response to be handled back through axis and tomcat I appreciate that dealing with axis to handle asyncronous responses is out of the scope of this list, but what about tomcat? Would much need to be changed to remove the assumption that everything has been done when servicing the servlet returns? I.e: If I can make my web-apps behave asyncronously, would a whole load need to be done within tomcat to support this?
