I've had good luck developing with Jetty 6. Unlike Tomcat, it's quite easy to set up an "ant jetty" target which launches a server, then just kill the process and run ant again for the next dev cycle.

Tomcat's hot deploy ought to make this easy, but I've had too many resource leak, out of memory, and general "Tomcat goes haywire" issues with the hot deploy to make it good for development. I'm much happier with Jetty's clean restart approach.

That's not necessarily an endorsement / criticism of either in production, of course.

Cheers,

Paul

hi everyone, I'm just starting a new development projet with Tapestry 4.0 and Hibernate 3.1. I'm looking for the best local server to install on my computer to make my development.

here are the important point for me:

1- Must be easy to install
2- Easy to deploy with ant and Eclipse.
3- Quick to start and stop.
4- Less configuration possible.
5- Must support JNDI
 6- Not to much memory ungry...

Right now, I use Tomcat 5.5.17 with the service installed and I have some problems. Use about 90mg of memory and is really long to start and stop.

I'm considaring switching to Jetty 6, is a good idea?

Maybe some theak in tomcat maybe anough..

Please, let me know what you think !

Thanks

Carl Pelletier
