In past I spent some times on optimization of performance mostly JSE application. Recently I had a chance to play with enterprise Java.
Yes, they both are pretty same Java and life does not become heavier when you moving from Standard Edition land to Enterprise one. Except one note: the enterprise app supposed to be more complex so, is more "layered" application. Kind of "Shrek's onions":
- Ogres are like onions.
- They stink?
- Yes. No.
- Oh, they make you cry.
- No.
- Oh, you leave em out in the sun, they get all brown, start sproutin' little white hairs.
- No! Layers! Onions have layers. Ogres have layers. Onions have layers. You get it? We both have layers!
- Oh, you both have layers. Oh. You know, not everybody like onions.
Thats true, not everybody like ... layers. Especially when we talk about high performance, low-latency applications. Some people implied the Java to a heavy, multi-layered applications and blames it for so slow speed in comparison with C/C++. But, I think, that is unfairly...
