I had a form with lots of custom tags. When run under the Sun 1.3 JDK it was slow as molasses. Sun 1.2 JDK or IBM 1.3 was instantaneous. A few mailing list posts pointed me to a bug in Sun's 1.3 having to do with nested try/catch blocks in the compiled JSP.
Try your page under Sun 1.2 or the IBM JDK and see if it makes a difference.

For instance, outputting a radio set is A LOT slower than outputting a drop down list since you just have to pass a collection to the "iterate", but you have to actually put all the <html:radio/> options on the JSP. <html:select property="factors[4].rating"> <html:options collection="ratings" property="value" labelProperty="label"/> </html:select> <html:radio ...../>Option A <html:radio ...../>Option A <html:radio ...../>Option A <html:radio ...../>Option A -----Original Message----- From: Pete Carapetyan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Posted At: Wednesday, February 06, 2002 12:10 PM Posted To: Struts Conversation: speed of struts Subject: Re: speed of struts I have had the same problem on one very large form with lots of back end tag processing. Would be interested to know if anyone had performed any profiling on similar situations to identify where the bottlenecks were.

I made it a little bit faster when I converted all radio button sets to drop down list, still it is very slow. The speed to load up seems to exponentially related to the number of form fields. > > Has anybody got the same problem? > > -- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- Pete Carapetyan http://datafundamentals.com Java Development Services Open standards technology for commercial profitability -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
