Well why so much noise about NIO/APR ? If some want to experiment APR or NIO, why can't they do their works on some sort of incubations projets and when stable enough give us benchmarks results.
Benchmarks/tesings should give us information on : stability, speed, memory usage, IO usage and of course we should have these on many platforms. For example if the alternative implementation is running fast as hell on Linux but has no gain on Windows or iSeries should we consider it usefull to users ? Also should we depend on APR on a java centric project ? I've got no problem with APR, it's a very good piece of code, running well even on exotic platforms like iSeries (and probably BS2000 jfc ?), but should we use a native library as the fundation of Java products ? Also since we're speaking about a future Tomcat redesign, shouldn't we take care of the future JVM implementations ? Sun, IBM JVMs for now but in the future GJC and upcoming Harmony ? If these use APR or something similar in native land, should we use APR directly ? I'd like to see here pragmatics informations on gains expected when using NIO/APR/WHATEVER in real life situations which is what users and admins expects.
