VFS3 and symlinks

This is the old JBoss mvn repo.

 

That version is in new Nexus  repo:

 

 

 

 

This is good to know. I am using Nexus as well. Great tool. I will make sure it's proxying the official nexus repository.

 

 

 

I would be great if you could post some stuff, as it seems you're on top  of it. :)

 

 

 

Well, I am quite new to JBoss development. Actually I could do some tests but maybe you can drop me some hints how to perform a load test (any how-to?). Currently I am deploying an application which includes only 3 EAR files and a total size of 50MB with arount 100 jar files included. Running JBoss in "all" configuration takes about 2:30 to start up on this machine (SunFire 4170) and I even think I will not be able to measure any difference in startup time either with or without canonical paths enforced. So I would need some stresstest which shows some significant difference.

 

To be sure I will measure startup time with enforced and without enforcing canonical paths.

 

But if there is no typical scenario where canonical paths show significant slow-down I wonder why it's not enabled by default. Maybe it could be switched off on systems which do not have symlinks or where it's very uncommon to use symlinks (Windows?).
