>             Project: Struts 2
>          Issue Type: Bug
>         Environment: Struts 2.0.8-SNAPSHOT, but same problem with 2.0.6, using Linux, Jetty plugin for maven2
>            Reporter: Sami Dalouche
>            Assignee: Lukasz Lenart
>            Priority: Critical

> The performance tuning guide suggests copying the template folder to WEB_APP root.
> So, I did it, and ajusted the "struts.ui.templateDir" configuration item.
> => drastic improvement of the performance (yiiii ahhhh !! Struts2 is finally faaaast )
> However, it seems to break the inheritance mechanism of templates. For instance, the a, a-close , or actionerror tags do not work for the css_xhtml theme (which inherits these tags fro xhtml).
> The error is the following one :
> [ERROR] [2007-05-31 21:10:26,281] [org.apache.struts2.components.ClosingUIBean] (btpool0-2,) : Could not open template
> java.io.FileNotFoundException: Template /struts2-template/css_xhtml/a.ftl not found.
> PS: why is it necessary to copy the freemarker template manually to the webapp root to improve performance ? Isn't it possible to inject artificial dates to classpath resources ? The date could depend on devMode = true or false. If true, inject new Date(), if false, inject any really old date.
