Pros and Cons of using Taglibs in Struts

[Sunil Mathew George <su...@wipro.com>]

Hi Guys,
	I am new to Struts and want to know if any known problems/issues exist when
we use taglibs. Can you please  provide me with any suggestion/links/info on
the pros and cons of using taglibs(I plan to use Tomcat 4.0.4).

Regards,
Sunil.

There was a really good response by Craig on this exact question....

Are you counting the time your action takes as well, or is that just
rendering time?

Tomcat 4 users will notice some performance improvements in the latest
nightly builds (and 4.1.x test releases).  A lot of work is going on to
improve the quality of the code that is generated for JSP pages,
especially those with lots of custom tags -- which pretty much describes
every Struts app in the world :-).

For other platforms, this is primarily an app server issue -- there is
basically nothing that Struts can do to influence the Java code that is
generated for custom tags, and the Struts tag implementations themselves
are fairly optimized.
