I noticed that the executor configuration was left out. This lets various tomcat connectors share the same thread pool, otherwise they will each have their own. Seems like a good idea to me. Thoughts? Hi,

I've helped put and support 3 apps into production with Tomcat. Many of the suggestions you've mentioned are good. Do you want to add log file generation and valves (for debugging) to this as well ? Siimilarly, you might want to add a note on "chunked encoding". BR, ~A hi there,

Nice list.
