+1 on the Performance project. There are some great tools for profiling applications now with open source licenses.
As a student, you also will learn a great deal from this project. The things you learn from profiling are very interesting, having been involved in a 2 month project performance optimisation on a CRM system, it was one of the best development learning experiences I have had. regards Malcolm Edgar http://click.sourceforge.net On 3/16/07, Ahmed Mohombe <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

This is not true anymore, as JSP is much faster and scalable now. Maybe it would be the time to try to regain a part of your users with a "Performance Improvements Project". Of course, it doesn't sounds spectacular, but the effect would be one for sure :). Velocity needs really almost no new features(except better error reporting and whitespace control), but better speed is always good. Ahmed. P.S. I don't expect Velocity to be again faster than JSP (it was up to 5 times faster in the past), but now the situation is almost reversed, so reducing the gap a little would be great. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
