I have a clarification for this statement. We actually recommend using the jetty that's included in the Solr 4.x example. It is stripped of all unnecessary features and its config has had some minor tuning so it's optimized for Solr. The jetty binaries in 4.x are completely unmodified from the upstream download, we just don't include all of them. On the 1.x and 3.x examples, there was a small bug in Jetty 6, so those versions included modified binaries. If you download jetty from eclipse.org or install it from your operating system's repository, it will include components you don't need and its config won't be optimized for Solr, but it will still be a lot closer to what's actually tested than tomcat is. Thanks, Shawn
