I guess the question is "where is all the time spent"? Loading required modules from the library I suppose? Not really knowing much about Racket's internals he naively asks: Could a server pre-load the commonly used webserver modules and make them available to new module servlets, or does the custodian implementation make doing that difficult/impossible? <blockquote cite="mid:CAJYbDa=uR26UAdfPgg5RzLo3HJv_rWosXXiCx+Rp9vbxPEbe9Q@mail.gmail.com" type="cite"> <pre wrap="">> 2) Debugging module servlets is a pain due to having to stop/restart > the server.

Doing this pretty much requires not following my advice in question 1, but the default server (used by the command line tool) allows you to go to "/conf/refresh-servlets" and unload/reload all the servlet code.</pre> </blockquote> That might help. Does unloading & reloading affect a stateless servlet that isn't been changed? More to the point, can you stop/restart the server and continue a stateless servlet? My application so far is based on stateful servlets and AJAX ... stateful mainly because it's easier for me to understand. Currently there is little use of continuations, but some planned functionality will use them extensively and it certainly would help if debugging didn't always mean starting over setting up conditions in the application.
