jetspeed1 is a real performance hog, when I tried it out early this year. Even with just one or two self-written simple portlets, it would eat memory and CPU, till my dual-p4-xeon with 2GB of memory gave very sluggish performance - rendering pages in 100's of milliseconds.
In contrast, the same machine running the portlet code as a simple tomcat servlet could render a page in less than 35ms.
Will J2 address this issue, or will I have to buy 8-way Opteron boxes with 8GB of memory just to make the thing run at an acceptable speed?
