Fastest Java web templating language
- by CaptainAwesomePants
I'm about to start in on a new Spring MVC project, and I'm examining the various options for the view. I've never been a fan of JSP, and I've run into JSP-related performance problems in the past, so I was looking through the other options. I'm hoping that somewhere somebody's taken a census of the various options (maybe it'll have to be me) and pronounced which ones are quick, or at least which options there are. Here are the choices I've thought of, ordered from obvious to bizarre:
JSP, JSTL
Velocity
FreeMarker
GSP (Groovy JSP)
ERB powered by IronRuby or some such craziness
Tea
Any suggestions, personal preferences, or other good options for the list?
