Are there any negative effects when choosing to set unpackWARs to false?
Performance?
Or what are the advantages to choose unpackWARS=true (I will not edit any
expanded file)?

Does the setting unpackWARs affect performance during runtime? The WAR
ends up unpacked to the 'work' directory regardless of this setting,
correct?

We don't uncompress the file on every resource request ;) That'd be
fairly awful design

Hi,
How does Tomcat determine when to reload the app (using autoDeploy)?
It appears to compare the time stamp on the war with the time stamp of
the expanded directory.

Hi,
From looking at the documentation further it seems that if you have

get redeployed. See below.

One way that I know that seems to work with Tomcat is to call

If it returns null, that means you are running as a WAR file.
