Hi,   Entity Beans are slower or faster depending on the context they are used in. There are no hard and fast rules. Also, even if EJB is slower (in some applications), it makes the application reliable and scaleable.   Hardeep Singh http://www.SeeingWithC.com/ -----Original Message----- From: Juan Pablo Lorandi [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, October 10, 2002 11:27 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: the truth about entity beans ECPerf, and also the benchmarks by the CTS(I think, I can't remember if that's the acronym).   Entity Beans are a slower(not much) than use-case-hardcoded JDBC. But they're within the same order of magnitude, thus, large systems using EBs will benefit from a swifter development timeframe and lessened maintenance costs.   If you want something really fast, Assembler and Native drivers are the way to go.   Juan Pablo Lorandi Chief Software Architect Code Foundry Ltd.

I'm not sure yet if this approach is good or not, mainly in terms of performance. I hear a lot of system architects say that entity beans are slow. What's the true about this issue? Entity Beans are slow? If not, which great J2EE systems(in production) are based on entity beans? Are there benchmarks which proof that entity beans can provide good performance?   regards,   Vin�cius
