How about the following list to compare keepalive and socket timeout?
Please add other topics, if any.


                 keepalive                 socket timeout
------------------------------------------------------------------
Configurability  No in Java                Yes
                 (depend on OS setting)

Target           All connections           Each connection

Standard timer   2 hours                   Depend on users
 setting

Influence        All of applications       Long running query
                 on a same OS              using a same connection

Overhead         Network for               CPU for timer
                 keepalive proves



On the other hand, should we  provide the both properties and users
chose either of them depend on their requirement?
