I am using WSAD 4.0.3 with a dual 2.2Ghz and 1GIG of ram. Some of my projects take up to 15 minutes to RMIC each time. Not to mention the all the new xml mapping files I get to create, just to have WSAD change them without telling me.

We have a team of 7 java developers and even though WSAD Studio is the official IDE for the project, 7 of us are using Eclipse and tomcat with plugins for development.Only our team leader is using WSAD as we have on deploy on WSAD... It is to slow and takes too much of memory(We used to have 512 MB ram..But that was not at all good with wsad 4.0 So w upgraded to 1 GB ram..But still it is slow..)And if u run the server in Debug mode or so , it is too too slow....And i think, during development , what u will be doing is starting and stopping the server frequently and debugging the application most of the time..So I will Strngly advice u that it will not at all improve productivity... I am not sure why it was choosen as deployment platform for our project and I am not an expert on Security issues etc..So I cant commnet if WSAD is good for deployment. BUT as for development , I can tell you from our experience that It is very very slow.They have improved the performance marginally with release 5.0 but still its no match for Eclipse... Hope this helps. regards, Shirish -----Original Message----- From: Frédéric BAROZZI [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, March 31, 2003 4:09 PM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Web sphere and productivity I developpe with struts and Eclipse and its plugins.
