Ok, so we got it nailed down these statements...

- The Struts Controller doesn't add more overhead than a high performance site should 
be able to handle. In the regard flexibility contra performance, using the controller 
makes your application manageable with negligible overhead.

- There was also the everlasting discussion on EJB's be or not to be. I think that 
there are loads of variables that affects the choices of the design and that there 
still remains some issues with EJB's. However when only using stateless session beans 
with DAO's I think that the scalability-flexability-performance goes hand in hand and 
makes a preferrable design choice. Anyone disagrees? Would be nice to hear your 
opinions.

- But what was not discussed was the overhead of custom tags. This seems to be a 
question much avoided everywhere. When talking about flexability. Oh yes, use them. 
They makes your pages much easier to build and manage. They also makes for a great 
design of the application. BUT (capital letters), what about the performance overhead 
of the tags? When designing a web site where the absolute focus is to be able to 
handle as many transactions as possible to a low cost. Doesn't custom tags become very 
expensive to use in a case like this? There must have been extensive testing made on 
this. Does anyone have any facts or thoughts on this?
