Pluglets.

I really missed the point of that <a href= "http://www.internetwk.com/shared/printableArticle?doc_id=INW20021112S0009">InternetWeek article yesterday. Oracle is not ready to ditch JDeveloper. They are joining Eclipse.ORG because they want to push their new Java Specification Request (JSR-198) that standardizes the way that tools plug-in to an IDE.

Oracle sees the possibility of the Eclipse dominates scenario and wants to try to ensure that Eclipse does not become the universal tools platform. JSR-198 attempts to level the playing field for IDEs in the plugin tools space.

Memory usage improvements.

I made a couple of changes in the Roller 0.9.7-dev codebase to address memory usage:

  1. There is now one and only one instance of the Roller business-tier implementation object RollerImpl instead of one per session.
  2. Many calls to getSession(true) were removed and now the RssServlet no longer creates a session.
  3. Velocity template caching has been turned back on, but I'm really not sure why leaving it off (apparently) ate so much memory.
#1 and #3 can be easily backported to Roller 0.9.6.X so FreeRoller can take advantage of them. My site now seems to be using memory at a much more reasonable pace now and I've survived 24 hours with max heap size set to -Xmx64m.
