Hi, To add on Paul's reply, Alex had done some performance measurements some time ago. See:
http://www.nabble.com/Ode-Performance%3A-Round-I-tf3880525.html#a10997631 We would probably fare better now as several of the improvements Alex mentions have been implemented. Which doesn't mean there's not more to do, there's actually still quite a bit of possible optimizations. An important thing to note on that side is that ODE support both persistent and in memory processes living at the same time within the same engine. So you can where you want to be fast and where you want to be reliable. Other than that, I believe the pi-calculus architecture is better. From a user standpoint you don't directly care much, but it has important implications on scalability and maintenance that you benefit from. Finally and most crucial: all committers are nice guys :-) Cheers, Matthieu On 9/14/07, Paul Brown <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi, Thilina -- > > Well, albeit that I'm certainly biased, here are a few things that > folks won't argue with: > > - ODE is the only BPEL engine with a business-friendly, > extender-friendly license.
