Coding Tags the "Right Way"

[Hunter Hillegas <li...@lastonepicked.com>]

I have the Manning book, "JSP Tag Libraries" which I've been using to help
develop some of my first tags.

For their iterator tags that work with beans, they use a lot of reflection.
I've not used reflection much in projects before this but I seem to remember
from my education that reflection is a very expensive process...

Anyone that has worked with tags have any insight as to how this design
could negatively impact performance on the Web app?
