[wildfly-dev] question 2 sec boot time of WISE

[Alessio Soldano]

I've invested some hours of Sunday on hacking a prototype doing more or 
less what I explained below; see [1] . It builds using latest wise 
snapshots, which are on nexus, anyway the changes I applied to wise-gui 
are [2]
In particular, there's a service [3] that starts the webapp 
programmatically; there's no more war deployment, the app is split into 
3 modules plus few plain contents (html, js, css) in /wise.
I see no sensible change in boot time compared to when there's no wise 
susbystem.
Any comments? shall we spend a bit of time cleaning up the prototype and 
sending a PR with this new approach?

Thanks
Alessio
