One isn't better than the other. They help in a different way.
1) java comments : // and /* */
might be used mainly to temporarily comment out some code that might be
causing trouble.
2) JSP comment <%-- --%>
Good to use for real comments on your JSP page. I.e. code documentation
Might also be used to temp delete piece of code
3) HTML comments <!-- -->
Good for Debugging purposes. This lets you output some values and info (like
timings, ID #, assertions ...) without messing up your output. But there's
still an easy way to see them (at least easier than server side logging or
so.
