I have been using drools for almost a year now and build several packages a day. Things are starting to slow down a bit and I've started to wonder if it is because of all the workspace copies and the jcr overhead of them. I have implemented a deletion of old workspace copies but this made me wonder why drools is doing (in RulesRepository): this.session.getWorkspace().copy( source, newName ); its not like i need a copy, once the package is built, it doesn't seem to 'rebuild it' from this snapshot. I have no way of "recovering to" this snapshot. Anyone can help me with the reason behind the copy (perhaps why I shouldn't just delete this copy? I'm sure there are side-effects of this I'm not thinking of, etc., etc.,) Any feedback is appreciated. -- View this message in context: http://drools.46999.n3.nabble.com/drools-packaging-creates-a-full-snapsho...
