Welcome to JavaRanch!

It depends on how the images will be used. If they are largely for display, I recommend keeping them on the file system. Until HTML5 is widely used in which case, they can just stream as part of the page.

I agree. Here's the link: http://ej-technologies/jprofiler - if it wasn't for jprofiler, we would need to run our stuff on 16 servers instead of 3.
