Summary

I hope you found this as an interesting dissertation about the JSF state. This was a controversial subject for a long time, and starting with JSF 2.2, the stateless views pour more gas on the fire of this controversy. Nevertheless, choosing the right way of managing states is a serious decision that affects the applications' performance; therefore, choose wisely and try to be documented about the existing benchmarks and workarounds regarding the JSF state.

See you in the next chapter, where we will discuss about custom and composite components in JSF.
