Can a prototype ever really be “complete”? I mean, this BBOM-rewrite has given me so many ideas and paths to take I had to settle with just one. So here’s the rundown and some statistics on one sample report I created:
| Application | OS/Server | Technologies | Report (sec.) |
|---|---|---|---|
| BBOM | Windows 2000, IIS, WebSphere | ASP, VBScript JSP, Java | 6.4 |
| Prototype | Linux, Apache, Tomcat | JSP, JSF, Java | 2.7 |
The BBOM has been “optimized” and the Rewrite Prototype is just a proof of concept. I still think there is something crazy going on with the BBOM though. More than TWICE the time it takes to run a report?! Man, hopefully adding on user sessions, connection pooling, logging, and some other gadgets doesn’t bog down the rewrite too much.
