RE: Websphere: a resource hog?

["Joe Pluta" <joepluta@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Commerce Suite may be your problem.  I have no information on, and have
never used, commerce suite, so I can't comment on it.  My model 270 can
handle 200 hits per minute pumping out pure HTML, and roughly 50 hits per
minute generating 400KB of HTML from database data.
