Hi I think the reason is that by using "one file, one component" you should be able to upgrade a component with a new release upgrading package and leave the rest non-changed files, so the installation will be a lot faster as unnecessary deleting, uncompressing og copying files can be avoided. However I havn't ever tried this in a real environment.
Just a OT-notice. I think you should be aware of not just replying a message, because the message will get tracked in systems like Nabble as a reply to the original message :) Kind regards, Jesper Jeff Reed wrote: > > Hi everyone, > > I have noticed that heat will harvest a folder and all subfolders and put > the files in individual components.
