Hey, The HelloWorld benchmarks at http://www.chamas.com/bench/ have been updated with numbers for Resin's JSP and OpenASP's VBScript, and with developer feedback, now shows more accurate groupings by system and code type. Check out in particular http://www.chamas.com/bench/hello_bysystem.html#group29 which shows JSP to be faster than a mod_perl handler on WinNT apache 1.3.6 ... mod_perl runs much faster on Linux than WinNT so would expect this to even out on a Unix box, but all the same, pretty darn fast. Also note Resin's optimized httpd serves the JSP faster than IIS serves VBScript. Note about testing Resin, the resin httpd is tricky to benchmark because the WinNT version comes with logging off by default. For the Hello World benchmark to be reasonable, you must turn logging on, all the same the Resin httpd seems to intelligently buffer output to the log file, so it didn't make much difference anyway. -- Joshua _________________________________________________________________ Joshua Chamas Chamas Enterprises Inc.
