Don't cache session internal pages though... be sure to only cache bookmarkable pages if you really want to. Better: don't cache the output of pages at all, but instead focus in making your business/service layer more efficient (e.g. cache your domain model/ queries etc). If you still need a higher throughput, generating static pages is a better solution than just caching imo. > The issue i see is that if i want to have wicket generated content on the > root page, i need to map the application servlet to: > <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern> > > But if i do that, it looks like all the static content has to go through > wicket too.

You can put a filter on top of the Wicket servlet, and if it matches with static content, you just don't pass control further the chain (Wicket). > Alternatively i guess i could map multiple application to deeper paths, but > that seems like a bad idea.

I don't know if there is any. Different people like different things. Personally, I'm not worried at all by having e.g. /app for the Wicket part of your app. Eelco ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
