To put my comments in context: We're in the process of evaluating frameworks for a new mission critical application. The list of criteria we're using really just represents a risk assessment and includes the usual suspects (productivity, training, maturity, performance, etc.)
As for performance, we're looking to make a reasonable business assessment, not produce a detailed technical report. My staff is small with a business to run and doesn't have the resources to go off building, configuring, and running performance comparisons for every framework under consideration (though it would be a good exercise for some). I'm sure there's a lot of us out here in the same boat. So, the short answer is that there isn't a list of specific statistics (and people would probably just nitpick them anyway). I'm looking for those early adopters who've already bled so that I can learn from their experience. Qualified third party references are golden. Committing to Tapestry carries with it a lot of risk (as well as a lot of proposed benefits). The basic concepts are what we've been seeking for a while, even if the execution seems a bit squirrely :) The bottom line is I just want to make the best choice for my business with a reasonable assurance that it can carry the weight going forward. Hope that helps and I'd welcome any more feedback people have (please). -----Original Message----- From: Hensley, Richard [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 02, 2005 12:02 PM To: Tapestry users; Jason Suplizio; Howard Lewis Ship Subject: RE: High Traffic Tapestry Performance When I went down this route, I discovered very little information on the actual performance of Tapestry. What I did discover, through a little digging in the archives is that most of the performance comparison's are from early in the life of Tapestry. The comparisons were how does Tapestry compare to various other technologies including JSP, and the comparison's were favorable. After developing our application, our back end services presented more bottle necks than anything in Tapestry. We are very happy with the performance of Tapestry. We have yet to find a performance problem related to Tapestry in our application. If you really must test performance Tapestry, I would suggest building a few pages that are highly populated, but do not depend on much back end processing. I would then use Grinder or Jmeter to beat up the application. The focus of the testing should be on testing the Tapestry software stack, not on testing any back-end services. What specific performance statistics are you needing to report? And for what purpose?

Has anyone done a performance comparison or know of any resources that detail Tapestry's performance?
