Re: Profiling Tapestry

One other thing I remember about this profiling stuff, was that sorting of 
International strings non-UTF-8 in Java (1.2) was really slow, much better 
doing it in the database. The default (en) Locale string comparitor however 
was really fast.

The application we were working of was a CRM reporting app, rendering lots 
of very large tables, with high update rates. A couple of things we looked 
at to improve performance, but didn't use included:

1.  Compressing the HTML content, like you can to today with Servlet
    2.3 API filters. This actually improved response time in a LAN
    environment which was surprising. Our table content generally
    compressed down 90-95%

2.  Sending XML and XSL straight to the browser, and have it do the
    transformation and rendering. This is a IE 5.0 feature, you use
    some special IE features to do client side sorting, I think this
    was with HTC's.
