Mickael Istria commented on JBIDE-13283:
----------------------------------------

According to helpdesk, Akamai rule was set up for the jbosstools/static folder.

I just run simultaneously resolution of the same TP, one linking to jbosstools/updates/requirements (No Akamai) and the other one to jbosstools/static/requirements (Akamai) and here are the results
Each of these runs in using Kepler M6, a TP from commit 773a5a40012f06c057a44309235843b6cc670aff (pre-M7, pre-pack.gz), and is on a dedicated new workspace.

No Akamai
1st run with updates/requirements: ~13m30s
2nd run with updates/requirements: ~10m30s

Akamai
1st run with static/requirements: ~13m30s
2nd run with static/requirements: ~6m40s
3rd run with static/requirements: ~6m30s

So Akamai cache mechanism can divide by 2 the time to resolve a Target Platform. Since it fully relies on p2, I'd bet it would divide by 2 installation times as well.

> All our repositories that are either mirrors or target-platform are not updated often. Then we could use Akamai to improve performances. At least these folders would be good:
> * http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/requirements/
> * http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/stable/
