I'm not personally running any sort of servlets, but the reports I've seen
on the list of using patchset 8 for this are favourable.

Hmmm, I can't think of any issues which are in the dire category, but there
are certainly some open bugs.  There are also some fixed bugs which aren't
in the current patchset (external processes, deleting empty directories).

From what it sounds like you're doing, you'll probably be fine.  But as
with all software in this stage of its life, give it a thorough test before
committing yourself to it :).
