Christopher, I think you should just start by measuring different layers of your application and different pathes the use cases go, and then start to think how to improve things that are slow. Blind performance tuning without knowing where the problem lies is the last thing that will help you. r

One I like is "Pro Java EE 5 Performance Management and Optimization", by Steven Haines. Note that Steven Haines is associated with Quest Software and Jprobe (and related products). Although the book uses some pictures from those products, it is not in any way a "veiled" ad for those products. I

Chris, I think before going for performance tuning you would have to decide on two things- A Load Generator and a Performance Profiler. Then you generate load and profile the application to find out exactly which layer\section of code\network needs to be tuned\upgraded. Then you focus on tuning

A few months ago I was thrown into the deep end on an urgent Struts-based project with a VERY tight deadline. To help me get up to speed ASAP, I bought and read/used these three books during that time: 1) Pro Jakarta Struts, Second Edition by John Carnell, Rob Harrop 2) Programming Jakarta Struts

I have two "go-to" books. Struts in Action, which has many wonderful pieces, especially tiles, the intricacies of the Struts-config file and some other goodies (feel free to ignore the chapters involving Scaffold and lucene -- both good technologies but the code samples are kinda weak). The Oriel

I would suggest Struts , the complete reference by James Holmes. It is incredibly clearly laid out and has a section on JSTL as well. It is good as both an introduction and a reference.

The corner stone of most struts developers on this list is a copy of 'struts in action' by Ted Husted published by Manning. A typical example on how you could use struts would be 'programming jakarta struts' by Chuck Cavaness and published by O'Reilly. I would read them in that order too.
