Hi,
While looking at making it possible to bind more than one
ResourceProvider to a URL see [1], I noticed that the
ResourceProviderEntry appeared to be a very active area of code with a
lot of recursion, especially when you actually start to deploy a
reasonable number of servlets. This lead me to think that it should be
possible to convert the loops into lookups and speed it up. I thought
it was simple, a week later I now know its not so simple.
Since the whole concept of binding ResourceProviders is probably going
to be highly contentious [2] since its intended to allow
virtualization of the mapping between URLs and jcr URI's I haven't
committed anything. I have put the patch set (which is not completely
working ) up [3] at codereview.
I have a question before I spend more time.
Am I wasting my time ?
(Obviously if I am not, I will clean the patch set up and make it
work, I believe it may also fix some issues with Servlet Registration)
