The wiki says (https://cwiki.apache.org/WICKET/working-with-wicket-models.html):
"Compound models allow containers to share models with their children. This saves memory, but more importantly, it makes replication of models much cheaper in a clustered environment." I think what we're saying in this thread is that PropertyModels actually have the same benefits as CPM; that is, a CPM doesn't give you any performance benefits over using a PropertyModel -- there's less typing with a CPM, but it ends up the same in the end. Does that sound right?
