Hi Everybody, I am currently evaluating several view frameworks for a large enterprise application that is yet to be built. One of the primary concerns of this application is response time. I have heard success stories about Tapestry being deployed successfully in a similar environment but have not been able to find similar references for Wicket (beyond http://cwiki.apache.org/WICKET/#Index-SitesusingWicket).
I have a few questions: 1) Does anyone know of Wicket being used on a high traffic website? 2) What are some of the challenges related to scaling a Wicket application (beyond the general servlet recommendations of being stateless as long as possible, keeping the state small to facilitate clustering, etc)? 3) Tapestry uses page and component pooling to help achieve higher throughput... It doesn't appear like Wicket can employ such a technique due to the framework allowing direct page and component instantiation. Are pages and components so light weight pooling them is not worth the disadvantages of not being able to pass parameters via constructor or is this a known trade off? Thanks for any information you can provide! I will be sure to post the results of my investigation on this list in a week or two.
