JavaFX: gr8 2 c on fonz
Danny Coward posted JavaFX: gr8 2 c on fonz: "What with the release of JavaFX 1.2 and JavaFX phones on sale to developers, and on view, for example here and here, the fact that the JavaFX language and common APIs are the same whether you are on the desktop or on a mobile device (or a TV set top box) is worth chatting about."

Arun Gupta provides quotes from developers in Rails on GlassFish - "most performant of all", "simpler and just works", "blazing speed": "Here are some quotes about running Rails applications on GlassFish from user@jruby mailing list: 1) I find the glassfish gem to be the most performant of all -- and I don't need to war-up my app. 2) I also have some mongrel cluster stuff, but glassfish is simpler and just works. 3) Voila...blazing speed, can handle lots of traffic..."

Event Based Programming in JavaFX
I decided to try my hand at some JavaFX programming to see what the language had to offer. Two of the key features of JavaFX are its ability to bind to data, and its access to all Java libraries. I used that to see how it handles for event-based programming. I built this minesweeper game, enjoyed using bind and on replace, and found myself wishing for more. — David Walend

Glassfish Performance??
Dear all, I have a SOAP application which doing some work takes about 1-4 secs to complete then response back to client. and the request and reply SOAP size is about 10K bytes long. My Glassfish is on a Q8200 4 core CPU with 4GB RAM on Cent OS 5.3. I use Threads.Sleep(1000) to simulate the process. The glassfish only can response 500 TPS(response per second back to client). I used SOAP UI to open 1024 threads(actually, 512-1024 get almost the same response TPS) for concurrent requests. If I use Threads.Sleep(2000) then the response only about half 250 TPS... —

Possible to set http listener with web application at / context?
I've been banging my head against this problem, so I thought before I start making too many changes or add any more frustration, I should ask whether it is even possible. I have a Glassfish V3 Prelude server set up on our environment that is listening on port 8070. Specific to this, I have deployed Hudson to it at context /hudson. So, the Hudson application can be reached at: http://localhost:8070/hudson Is it possible to set a specific http listener to be dedicated to only one web application?... —
