So you're substituting: container -> servlet -> dispatch -> servlet ( etc ) For: container -> servlet -> bean (-> bean?) So everything runs in the same "process tree" instead of finishing the execution of one servlet, pass the control to other (thus freeing some resources from the previous one) and so on? I don't know, it seems to me that the dispatch method used by the container is better...it may be slower (though I doubt it makes a big difference), but, it's a compromise. -- []'s Marcelo Vanzin Touch Tecnologia [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Life is too short to drink cheap beer" -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
