JSF performance with increased facelets.BUFFER_SIZE

[mgrouch]

I've been playing with performance related settings more and found one
(a bit forgotten parameter) which made a big difference in my case.

I've set this in my web.xml

<context-param>
 <param-name>facelets.BUFFER_SIZE</param-name>
 <param-value>500000</param-value>
 </context-param>

Increasing facelets.BUFFER_SIZE to 500000 cut JSF response time almost in half!!!

This is for my case of rendering table see

As far as I understand this buffer is short lived (only during response) so
if there are not many concurrent request as same time increasing it
would not create any memory consumption problems.

Thanks,

For Sun RI

There is

com.sun.faces.responseBufferSize

context parameter.

I wonder what will happen if I increase it too...

It would be great if you would write up some of your performance related stuff and link to it from the wiki.
