  6. windows not production for java apps on Microsoft Claims Firms 'Hitting a Wall' With Linux · · Score: 2, Interesting

    We're finding it very difficult use java with Windows in a production environment. We can't get a heap larger than 1GB without jumping through hoops. Even then, getting 1.5GB is about as good as it gets. For an application server environment with multiple integration points, this just isn't enough. On Linux or Solaris I can get just under 4GB just by flipping a switch. To get the 1.5GB or closer to 2GB on windows, you've got to disable all kinds of services and just hope you can get a contiguous region large enough.

  9. Re:If you're not committed yet, check out XMLC. on Struts Kick Start · · Score: 1

    Our app is struts based & we have it split into multiple subprojects. Each subproject has it's own struts-config.xml. At build time we use an Ant task to combine into one file. Works flawlessly and we can mix & match subprojects by release.

    I do agree with you about JSP. I preach to our team that anything you do with javascript or scriptlets can be done with a custom JSP tag, but in the end it just comes up short and we end up writing script or generating it. Either way I'd rather not do it.
