It's 1.1-dev, not 1.0-dev, and I think that someone (could have been one
of the xdoclet devs) once told me it was "much much faster". I didn't
quite believe it, but never tried.
I'd be inclined to refuse upload of future releases if this is still there.
Cheers,
Brett

oh, no - xdoclet. I'll file a bug there if they still depend on it.

the version's somewhere between 1.0 and 1.0.1 and i'm really not sure
how it could possibly be 'much much faster' :-/
it may be a little faster since it probably lacks some of the complex
code which is required to cope with the nightmarish variety of
classloaders to be found out there in the wild but that's unlikely to
make much of a difference in real use cases and certainly is much less
than choosing a performant logging strategy.
