Performance of Tag Handler

[Fisher Daniel]

Dear all,
I want to know what is the differences of performance between using Custom Taglib/JSTL and not using one in our JSP?
thanks

Custom Taglibs are just a convenient way to make use of helper classes, and get code out of your JSP file as much as possible. Take a look at the generated Java source code to see what those taglibs end up creating - it is really pretty compact.
I doubt you could measure the difference and your JSP will be much more maintainable without all that code. IMHO getting the algorithm right has the greatest impact on performance.
