{{{ I recently did a rewrite of a small application and ported it over to

• Avalon. The app had undergone several revisions and was starting to get crufty. I knew it would work better under Avalon, but the results surprised me:
  • - The complete rewrite took under two weeks. The last major revision
    • took over a month
    - Due to using Avalon's configuration package, 38 classes were
    • eliminated. (they had been generated with exolab's castor product)
    - Originally the application had 11736 lines of code, 7863 lines were
    • from the castor generated classes, leaving 3873 lines of original code
    - After Avalonization, the entire project had only 1686 lines of
    • code, cutting the original size in HALF!
    - Several new features were added and the entire design updated to be
    • more modular
    - We even got a small performance speed boost
  This is another reason why Avalon rocks! Thanks again guys! - jaaron (06/09/2003) }}}
