We ran into the same problem in our application. We had more than 20+ html:text fields on our jsp pages. We ended up using "input type" tags rather than html:text and speed up our application by perhaps 1000%. We are still using html:select and have not noticed many problems with performance.
Bottom line: those tag libraries are a tremendous hog. We don't believe they're really ready for prime time yet. -----Original Message----- From: Craig R.

Tomcat 4 users will notice some performance improvements in the latest nightly builds (and 4.1.x test releases). A lot of work is going on to improve the quality of the code that is generated for JSP pages, especially those with lots of custom tags -- which pretty much describes every Struts app in the world :-). For other platforms, this is primarily an app server issue -- there is basically nothing that Struts can do to influence the Java code that is generated for custom tags, and the Struts tag implementations themselves are fairly optimized. > Thanks in advance, > Erich > Craig -- 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]>
