Tomcat or Jetty????

Is there a comparison of the pros and cons of using Tomcat vs. Jetty with JBoss? I'm just getting started with JBoss (I've been using Caucho Resin for years), and I'm hoping I can find a comparision, or at least discussion, of each products merits.

Also, the download page for JBoss 4.0 does not indicate which http/servlet solution is included.

No specific pros and cons. Tomcat has all the trimmings for the servlet container spec. Jetty has a smaller footprint and all the features normally used. Jetty has some better configuration controls.

Performance is here:

YMMV with actual performance, depending on the JDK used.

How do they support international characters? I have not managed to change Jettys default encoding to UTF-8.
