Does this not create a problem with response time?
It depends, of course. If it does cause problems, then you could simply do something else. This is just one example program, after all! People have indeed used pooling of various kinds; no problem with that.
On a related note, is it possible to deep clone a Rete object? That is, instead of loading all the rules in every Rete object, maintain a clean instance and clone it?
You can serialize/deserialize, but that's slower than simply reloading the rules, and it saves no memory. In Jess 7.1 (which just entered public alpha testing) there's the new concept of "peering", which means that multiple rule engines can share a single network of compiled rules quickly and efficiently. Check it out!
