I used Jigsaw on a project before. IMHO, it's a nice prototype, but I'm not
willing to trust
it for production. The whole "frame based"/"resource based" architecture is
nice for
extension, but leads to excessive object creation and activation per request
which harms
scalability. If a request activates say, 200k of heap, then 100 requests,
will allocate
20mb, which can't be that good on pre-hotspot VMs.
It also didn't compare favorably in a recent benchmark I saw comparing
Apache, Zeus, NES, IIS,
Jigsaw, and JWS. (can't remember the URL, but found it through Slashdot.org
discussion)
