I would think that the servlet would increase the performance of the application by a bit. XML parsing in JS can't be fun, or fast, for that matter. This assumes the latency between wherever you would run your application server and the target C++ backend isn't too high, though. Otherwise you are making a big triangle of a route, as opposed to simply back and forth. Probably still worth it, since then you can leverage awesome java XML parsing libraries.
You may see some performance penalty for switching servers, I suppose. I seem to recall that Tomcat wasn't quite as zippy as Apache. -Ben -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Web Toolkit" group.
