Yes, the impact is significant. If you have over 100 classes in your
src/action and you push out a change to one of your hot classes, you
have to wait for Seam to scan and reload those classes. Personally, I
have found it to be more than instant, which is too long for me. Plus,
you might end up dropping data in components that you don't want to
drop (because you know they didn't change). To solve the issue, you
move those components to a place where they are fixed so you can work
narrowly with the set that is changing.
Frankly, I don't want all my classes hot deploying. Usually, I have
classes I am working on and those are the ones I want to reload, and
having the control over a hot area makes sense to me. Granted, down
the line we could have a more sophisticated scheme, but like I said,
we are looking to remove a simple annoyance for the 2.1 release.

Does moving solidified classes make a real performance difference?
My main concern is that model classes and their dependencies can never be
hot deployed, so moving to a main / hot scheme will create a whole new set
of confusion
