Re: [jetty-users] jetty handlers versus servlets

[Jesse McConnell <jesse.mcconnell@xxxxxxxxx>]

with a simple handler you don't have any of the weight of the servlet API

so your correct it would be lighter weight but it does tie you to
jetty.  If your willing to give up the whole servlet, filters, etc etc
then handlers are a simple way to go

you gain...less code between your request and your response :)
