Re: [wildfly-dev] Is JMX Needed in Core?

I'd like to vote for adding it into the full dist and configuring the provisioning tool to grab the JMX modules. We rely on JMX for accessing specific monitoring metrics and it's difficult to get at some of the metrics that used to be easily available in prior versions for some metrics. We've had to jump through some hoops to get JMX working the way we need in wildfly 8 -- with the new undertow module, we had to write some code to expose some metrics that used to be part of the jbossweb module, like avgResponseTimeMS and requestCount. Would be awesome if JMX support was more complete and part of the full dist.
