Weld's performance
There were a number of comments on twitter and blogs last week discussing Weld's performance and scalability, and I wanted to comment on the issues discussed and our work to resolve them. Upfront, let me say that we have been actively working on performance and scalability for a while now (previously more on memory usage, more recently on performance). Of course, we work primarily with JBoss AS, but also work closely with the GlassFish team; many of the improvements will be directly available as Weld is updated in GlassFish, and we'll continue to support the GlassFish team in any performance work they do on GlassFish that impacts on Weld.
Infinispan and Seam are doing it again. We're hosting a community social in the midst of Europe's premier Java conference, Devoxx (in Antwerp, Belgium). This year we'll be joined by Arquillian to keep things under control (you don't want to make Ike mad).
Hibernate Branches and Releases
Hibernate has moved to Git (hosted on GitHub) for source control. That has been well documented. I wanted describe the approach Hibernate takes to branching, versioning and releasing as it is something that has come up a number of times, even prior to the move to Git.
AS 7.0.0.Alpha1 released!
As AS6 has been getting closer to CR, we have recently started working on our new next generation application server. Last week, we just released an early alpha of this work, 7.0.0.Alpha1, code named Halloween
.
Hibernate Search 3.3 CR1 is out. Last chance for testing before the baby goes out. This release include many bug fixes and small features but we have added a couple of significant ones:
Hibernate Metamodel Generator 1.1.0.Final is now available for download either from the JBoss Maven repo or from SourceForge.
Seam Faces - Version 3.0.0.Beta1 is released. Several bugfixes as well as several new features have been included. This new version requires Weld Version 1.0.1.Beta1 or later. (Meaning GlassFish 3.1 or JBoss AS 6 M5+)
