Hi Guys, I just started doing some simple tests between EJB3.0 and standalone RMI. Im using the JRMP in both cases(well it think so, i read that jboss uses JRMP protocol out of the box for ejb3.0, and i havent changed anything). Its just a simple test that i have, look up remote object and i call it 1,000 times for both cases. I just keep track of the time it takes and thats it. I would have thought since both are using the same protocol that the difference wouldnt be much but there is a big difference. Normal RMI way takes around 1-2 secs on average, ejb3(stateless bean) way takes from 7-10 seconds. Anyone shed some light on why the big difference or is this a fair way for comparison?? Using jdk1.5_11 on xp with app server 4.2.2GA. Cheers, LL View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4102166#...
