I have a basic "loan calculator" EJB on JBOSS 4/RHEL 3/x86 which provides calculation services to RMI clients. The demo runs on a single cpu x86 box (actually it's a no frills laptop :-)
I am wondering if I can demonstrate thread pooling functionality on this basic configuration, and how do I have to change the JBOSS configuration to do so. I am inclined to think that even if my server has only one cpu, however if n clients make access to the EJB there should be some performance benefit in having a pool of threads that service those clients, vs having just one single bean (that would be accessed sequentially by the clients?)
Thanks for any further insights.
