What I was meaning is that a lot of work has been done to speed up the XSP engine and that the bad experiences people may have encoutered in the past should be confronted with today's engine.
I'd be very thankful if someone had the required time and competence to set up and include in the CVS a JMeter test suite that would allow us to compare objectively two versions of Cocoon. Also, can someone point me to these speed-related classloading issues ?
