I am not sure our perf team measured this....
Would not be too hard for you, assuming you played with this real app
to try different repetitive deployments (dirdeploy or dotreload)by
changing a simpl jps or class and measure to determine the best option.
For the status of dotreload, I think a file containing the status
(fail or success) is created on disk.Not sure if it is in the file
content of the filename...
