Hi all, This is my first post; sorry if it is too or not enough precise. I'm currently testing the JBoss XACML Implementation with the SAML Servlet enveloppe. I first simply deployed the SAML Servlet and the PDP with my own policies on a JBoss Server 4.2.3GA It was running fine (ie all my SAML requests were responding PERMIT or DENY appropriately) but the perf was very poor. I realized that the PDP was loading the policy files from disk for each request and that was the reason of bad perfs. Then, I modified the SOAPSAMLXACMLServlet to load the policies at start up (init method) The perf improved really significally. Unfortunately, I stress tested my configuration with SOAP UI and I got unattended results. I mean, some request that had always returned PERMIT were returning few times a DENY (about 1/1000 times). I added a synchronized block around the pdp call and the problem was fixed but again, the perf decreased... Have you ever seen a synchronization problem on JBoss PDP? Am I missing something?
