Which caching framework to use? I discovered this afternoon (after I got everything working - thanks to Jason's comment) that the main process in the webapp I'm building (day job) takes 15 seconds to process. It could be have something to do with the fact that the HTML page itself is 1.5MB of data (view-source, save as). And it's a very lightweight page as we're using strict XHTML and mucho CSS. So now it's time to start looking into caching frameworks. For the web/JSP side, I'll probably use OSCache. It's seems to be more tried and true, and commons-cache is still in the sandbox. If any of your have experience, chime in so I don't pick the wrong one! Another method I'm going to try is using JCS with Hibernate. Since I'm using XDoclet already, all I have to do is add the following to the top of my persistable objects. 

@hibernate.jcs-cache usage="read-write"

I can't comment on JCS but for OSCache I can tell you: it's great. It worked that well on some parts of our webapps that people almost forgot refactoring and optimizations...;)

Also, for Struts-related caching take a look at ActionCache: http://actioncache.neteye.de Works like a charm, also in combination with Tiles..
