Will,
Thanks for the input. This caught my attention about at least one
particular benefit of Stripes Layout over Tag Files:
http://www.stripesframework.org/display/stripes/Layout+Reuse
*Page fragment layouts
*
This might be obvious, but you can also use a layout to control how a
small piece of a page renders. Using the layout tags in this way is very
similar to using the new JSP tag files which allow you to write custom
tags using JSP fragments. /_With on important difference. While you can
pass the result of JSP fragments to a tag file, those fragments cannot
contain any scriptlets._/ Often this isn't a problem, but sometimes it
can get in the way.
It remains to be seen (yet) if this benefit will matter much in our case
though I am curious if anyone end up using Stripes Layout over JSP tag
files b/c of this??? And why? An example is cited at the URL above but
I doubt I would ever want to do anything like that.

Nikolaos,
I can't comment on Stripes Layout memory consumption, nor the use of Tiles.
I can only follow up with what Richard said about JSP 2.0 Tag Files.
I've not used Tiles or Stripes Layout simply because Tag Files exist, and I use
those instead.
JSP Tag Files effectively are as memory efficient (or inefficient) as JSP pages
are themselves, since that's effectively all they are -- JSP files converted to
code and dynamically run at page render time.
Tag Files allow for ready refactoring and adding the right amount of
abstractions to your JSPs.
