I'm really not sure where he's getting that information (but then again, I'm
not sure if I'm a "good java guy" :-)). A JSP page is compiled into a
servlet. After compilation there is really no difference between a JSP and
a servlet. I guess on a very small scale there are differences between the
output. i noticed with JSWDK, the output includes lots and lots of
whitespace ("\t", etc) to make the output formatted (which I think is
important). You could write a servlet to just stream out only HTML and no
whitespace although debugging would be hell. I'm really not sure how this
would affect performance and if it would even be noticeable on a yardstick.
The only other thing that may affect performance would be the individual
servlet engine implementations but this is easily changed. If one vendor is
slow, you can switch to one that has a faster implementation.
