    Description

      I've had several users comment to me that application development with GEP is not as fast as it should be. Basic scenario is create an application, deploy, test, update, test, update, etc... IIUC, for each update, GEP is repackaging the WAR and running a redeploy. Repackaging/redeploy can take some time (for large apps > 30 seconds). IIUC, we could be updating the appropriate JSP/Servlet classes directly and greatly improving this behavior. I don't know how this works, however. Anybody interested in looking at this? I'd like to see this improved in 2.2. If it's something that could be fixed in 2.1.x, that would be great. But that might depend on how extensive the changes are...
