[rules-users] Is Drools suitable for this scenario?

[Greg Barton]

If this assigning of values between objects does not require further action, then you can use stateless sessions in sequential mode.  (By "further action" I mean no rules need to fire in reaction to object changes.)  That's how you'll get maximum speed.  Also, the setup is generally what takes the most time, so it's best to keep an engine (or pool of engines) initialized and ready to go for incoming requests.
