[gatein-dev] Performance branch

[Julien Viet]

Hi all,

I have created a branch for working on gatein optimization.

The branch is interesting for several reasons:

- we can always compare performances from the trunk and the branch and  
estimate the gain
- the trunk will be isolated from that branch as it will likely use  
snapshots at some points and perhaps introduce bugs
- when work is done and before merge to the trunk, we can run the  
sniff tests
- it is based on the beta 2 so we can expect to have some stability
- it defines a clear life cycle in the work being done

I will probably not be the only person working on that effort  
(hopefully) but I will be the person managing the life cycle of the  
branch which means:

- perform the continuous merging of trunk to the branch
- perform the final merge of the branch back to the trunk at some points

The branch was created from the trunk revision number 380 (important  
to keep the last revision number from which the branch is up to date)  
which seems to be the beta 2 release tag.

I will work for the next couple of days on removing the major  
bottlenecks, so you can expect an update before next monday.

We should try to use this thread to discuss about this topic.

cheers

Julien
