Ok. I'm not sure where though, just like that.

On the plus side, the components are privileged, so if something goes wrong
it's the component's fault and not a security issue. It depends on how much
use this gets ultimately. I suppose quite a bit moving forward, so there
should be an option there. It's obviously going to be cheap too.

Yes, but I still have no answer for the assertion that APR is still the
fastest connector. So this performance drop has to be accepted. On the plus
side, I would say APR users are not a majority, so this could go well.
Functionally, APR is now more a problem than a solution in Tomcat
("sendfile" done differently works well now).
Ideas:
- Someone mentioned a new compiler API could be used in Jasper
- An embedded 2 API ?
- Whatever from the early work of the EE EG (reactive shiny thingies ?)
