When you wrote your own tags (the message/write equivalents, I mean), did
you happen to play with body versus non-body tags? When I was wrestling with
the "too many tags" problem a while ago, I ended up writing my own versions
of some of the Struts tags so that they were non-body tags, because they
caused noticeably less code to be generated. I didn't measure performance
differences, but I wouldn't be surprised to see a noticeable improvement
there too.
