- diroussel 6y agoEven servlet containers are the wrong approach. I have from experience it’s best to stick to libraries. You know where you are when you call a function. The Servlet spec now includes annotation scanning by default now, which is unnecessarily complicated and slows down start up.

- aww_dang 6y agoPlain servlets, jetty, haproxy for TLS, jstl, postgres, apache dbcp. Add in whatever specialty libraries for the project and you can pull away with 1/100th of the dependencies.
