  • I didn't knew that WAR is an architecture

    Can you explain me why you refer to WAR as to a model or architecture? WAR is really just a packaging, not a computational model or architecture. How many threads are created per request is more in the domain of the web application server, rather than the packaging. Am I wrong? This is the part I didn't understood.

    The logic is: WAR de-facto imply Servlet container. I don't know of any Java app server where the above is not true.
    Jetty6+ has continuations and Servlet 3.0 has async processing. The Play Framework Scala API is more elegant than both of them.
