Not very likely, but maybe I'll break down at some point and give it a
go myself...

I'm currently investigating the move from a full-blown JEE server to
Jetty plus a few add-ons and figured it would be best to use the
latest and greatest right away. Given the current state of
documentation, some breaking changes that affect other libraries (e.g.
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WELD-156 ) and things like missing
overlays, I'm no longer sure. On the other hand, the release
announcement for 9.1.0 seems to say that 9.0 is a dead end with no
further releases planned.

Should I go with 9.0 anyway for now, risking that I might hit a bug
that never gets fixed on that branch? How significant are the
performance improvements in 9.1? (Performance is pretty crucial for
us.)

(This would be a great topic for a Jetty blog post, BTW - I can't be
the only one wondering which release to work with.)

Thanks

Klaus
