Hi,

I thought your group might be interested in this press release.

Thanks,

***********************Press Release*******************************
Urbancode releases EJB benchmark study comparing the relative performance of
four EJB design idioms.

"As developers of EJB applications, we are often faced with the question of
what architecture or design to use. There is no shortage of proposed and
touted architectures and designs out there. We can use fine grained entity
beans, coarse grained entity beans, entity beans with a session bean front
end, and even stateless session beans to access our data. Lacking any hard
data on which we can base our decision, we are often forced to rely on
claimed best practices and pure marketing hype." stated Mr. Zawadzki,
President of Urbancode SDI

This benchmark seeks to change that. The goal of this benchmark is to
provide some objective basis for the hard design decisions every EJB
development team has to make. This is not a benchmark of application
servers. Urbancode does not test the performance of one application server
versus any other app. server. The benchmark does test the performance of
five EJB design idioms all running on the same application server and using
the same database.

The benchmark seeks to answer questions such as:

how should I design my EJBs to maximize performance when accessing a single
instance of data at a time?
how should I design my EJBs to maximize performance when accessing a
collection of data instances at a time?
how should I design my EJBs to maximize the performance under a load?
The results are compelling. "You may be surprised to find that a flawed
architecture of your EJB application could lead to performance 120 times
slower than that possible with an appropriate architecture." stated Mr.
Zawadzki. If you are having performance troubles with your J2EE app, then
