"We finished our target goal too quickly so we had time to add unplanned functionality" TJ Witte - Salesplace.com "Equivalent transactions that were taking a full second (or more) to complete in a Java agent are now completing in 20 - 40 milliseconds. And we haven't even optimized it yet to use any explicit scope caching; that 50x performance boost is just from running it in a servlet context instead of in agents" "XPage technology drastically reduces the time it takes us to develop Domino applications. We no Tim Tripcony - Lotus 911 longer need to spend time developing client side JavaScript/Ajax code since many of things we built in this manner are now core features of XPages. Additionally, the ability to more easily leverage standard techniques like CSS makes building a compelling user experience much easier." ...People had a good feeling of what they saw. They appreciated that 'Cloud' widget, and the good look & Bruce Elgort - Eljugi software llc feel already provided... ...Some were already asking when we could deliver the first eLite running with xPages.” Pierre Verscheure - Jacobs Engineering Group Inc
