Hello Jay,
I agree with your idea to improve Dojo’s performance in G. I suggest you
create a JIRA for this so we can keep track of it. You might want to
checkout the Dojo builder (uses ant) which packages js and related files
into a single compressed js file. I think somebody from the devlist
already suggested this.
Best wishes,
chris

Hello all,
I finally managed to get my project development/testing server up and
working on 1.2-snapshot (Thanks again djencks!).
And I finally got to see the JMX console that was added - Which is
very cool.
But, I think that it brings to light a performance issue. Because we
are using dojo widgets that are not 'bundled' into the dojo.js
library, we end up pulling down -many- individual files to support the
widgets.
I think we should consider building our own dojo bundle (I'm going to
start looking into exactly how to do this) and deploying it to
something like /geronimo-dojo and using that for console apps. Pulling
the one (slightly larger) library -should- increase response time
since we won't need all of the extra file requests/responses going
over the wire.
I do like having dojo deployed to /dojo built into the server though
and would like to keep the base library there (so far I have just been
using the AJAX portion of dojo in my own apps - so I haven't needed
any widgets).
Does anyone have any thoughts about this?
Jay
