Michael Concini updated MYFACES-2864: ------------------------------------- Status: Patch Available (was: Open) > Allow caching of resources by the default external context impl > --------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MYFACES-2864 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-2864 > Project: MyFaces Core > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: General > Affects Versions: 2.0.2-SNAPSHOT > Reporter: Michael Concini > Assignee: Michael Concini > Attachments: MYFACES-2864-patch.txt > > > We've seen in our testing significant improvements in performance by caching > the results of getResource() and getResourcePaths() calls. Adding this > caching has led to about a 30% increase in throughput on an older JSP > application, and a doubling of throughput on JSF2/facelets applications that > utilize templating and composite components. This testing was all done on > WAS so gains could be different on other servers depending on the behavior of > their servlet containers. > In the patch I'm attaching, it currently sets that the default for the > caching is enabled if the project stage is production and I've defaulted the > cache size to 500 entries. I've created two context params that allow for > overriding the size and/or disabling the cache outright. > There might be a few cases where this will need to be disabled. Most > prominently would be anyone who adds or removes files to a production > environment. This could cause problems for an application that generates > dynamic content on disk instead of in memory, although I don't know if that > is common enough that we'd want to turn it off by default given the gains > that the majority of users would see. > Please review the patch and let me know if there should be any tweaks or if > anyone feels strongly one way or the other about whether it should be enabled > or disabled by default. I'll plan on committing Monday based on any consensus. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
