The problem with CGI script is that your server must
restart the CGI script every time a new request is
issued.This means every time a client communicates,your
server needs to begin a new proccess .starting and stopping
processes are expensive operions.
The difference between servlet and CGI scritpt is that CGI
script must be restarted every request where as servlets
are pooled and reused over and over again to service many
requests.This means you don't have to restart a process
every time client request comes over the network.
After servlet is loaded,to handle client request it simply
creates a thread and runs service() of servlet.
servlets are more efficient,powerful,portable,inexpensive
and convinent.
