Jetty 9: The Next-Generation Servlet Engine

Jetty has always been known to be a technology leader in several areas - from Jetty Continuations (later standardized as Servlet 3 asynchronous servlets), to WebSocket, to SPDY - delivering exceptional production performance. Jetty 9 comes with major improvements in performance, features, and
documentation. It is not only a great production server but features such as the Jetty Maven plug-in
and embedded Jetty will also help you in application development and integration testing.

Applied Mechanical Sympathy

This session will present how concepts of “mechanical sympathy” have been applied to Jetty 9 in order to improve its performance over Jetty 8. After an introduction to modern processors, the session will present real code cases taken from Jetty 9, the tools used to measure the performance, from false sharing to
parallel slowdown, to branchless code and lockless code.
