Fair point Joe, perhaps instead of "big" I should have said decent. We are
running an S20, with very little interactive (another problem for
webfacing).

According to the WAS specs, we haven't got enough memory or a fast enough
processor, so maybe we're lucky that it runs at all....

Has anyone found some "recommended" machine specs for Tomcat?

Chris.

Chris, what type of box are you running?  I've found it's not the size of
the box, but the age that matters.  The older boxes don't handle WebSphere,
but the newer ones run it quite nicely.  I've got a tiny little model 270
here (with 0 interactive CPW - a $10,000 machine), and WebSphere runs very
well.
