Hi Peter, I've done some performance/load tests with Wicket for our current project. Wicket itself isn't the problem in this regard, usually it is the amount of data you want to present on your pages. That data typically comes from a database and the number of queries and the amount of data to be read is the limiting factor. We had discovered some performance hotspots, but those have been removed in 1.2. We're going to do another round of load tests the coming weeks so take a close watch on the dev list to see if any problems arise ;-)
There aren't any publicly available large scale sites available afaik, if you mean portals such as cnn.com, theserverside.com, etc. Wicket is typically used in applications rather than web sites. There have been several threads about this subject on JavaLobby. I suggest perusing those. And of course: http://www.wicket-wiki.org.uk/wiki/index.php/Stories On the productivity note, the only independent reference I could find is: http://www.indicthreads.com/news/435/wicket_java_framework_saves_programming_time.html I don't know how they measured it, nor if it is typical. At our company we don't see a productivity boost per se, but more a shift in productivity. The biggest problem is that with Wicket you are able to build more complex application, so we build more complex applications. This takes more time.
