3 months of JRebel

Found this post in draft status. Seemed to have forgotten to publish it. Here it goes.

I’ve used JRebel for 3 months. The demo license has come to an end in January and I’m already missing it.

In 3 months time JRebel saved my about 3 days, that is a day a month. Now I must confess, I haven’t had to start up webapps for at least one month and another month was 3 weeks of holidays . So these stats actually count for only a month and a half, which makes them even look better!

Currently I’m without JRebel, restarting the jersey/spring web applications every 2 deploys. I’m trying to advertise the usage of JRebel a bit, but with the crisis it seems there is no money. If I only was a manager …

Why should you use JRebel? That has been summed up before see here and here

Wouldn’t everyone want a tool like that?

I would like to see LiveRebel in action where I work now, but don’t think the workplace wants it 🙁
