Petals Distribution

I'm using Roboconf to deploy a proxy SOAP where:

• a first container runs the service consumer part,
• a second container runs the service provider part,
• external web-service is running into a sample webapp deployed on Tomcat
• my webservice client is a load test run with SoapUI
• my second container is configured to be replicated when more than 5 requests are processed concurrently by the BC SOAP

Several problems occurs:

• timeouts occur during the startup of the replicated container, and this container seems to be no more able to process request during a given duration,
• I get few NullPointerException at BC Soap level,
• and the NIO transporter seems to establish too many connections,
• ...
