Actually, this is just one application.  Webslinger(-core) is an enabling 
technology, that enables anything to be written quickly.  As I said, I've only 
spent probably 2 actual weeks on the application itself.

The main question in my mind is what does all this mean for OFBiz?  Obviously 
because webslinger is currently in the framework you envisage it playing some 
sort of role in the ERP applications, but what exactly?

It means that webslinger could run all of cwiki.apache.org, being fully java dynamic. The front page is currently giving me 250req/s with single concurrency, and 750req/s with a concurrency of 5. And, ofbiz would be running along side, so that we could do other things as well.

Storing content in the database is wrong. How do you use normal editors(vim/emacs/dreamweaver/eclipse/photoshop) to manipulate files? How do you run find/grep? What revision control do you use(git/svn/whatever)? The webslinger mantra is to reuse existing toolsets as much as possible. That means using the filesystem, which then gives you nfs/samba access for sharing, etc.

The filesystem api we use is commons-vfs; we don't actually use commons-vfs itself, most of the implementation and filesystems have been rewritten to actually be non-blocking and performant and not have thread leaks or memory leaks or dead-locks. We don't use bsf(too much reflection, too much synchronization).
