Using Java Assertions? Use an Assertion-failed Breakpoint!
Zviki Cohen provides some useful debugging tips in Using Java Assertions? Use an Assertion-failed Breakpoint!: "I'm a big fan of assertions. I use them very often in my code as safeguards. I was very pleased when true, native assertions were introduced to Java: they allow adding more tests while keeping the code running faster when disabled. If you like assertions, you will appreciate the following tip. A failed assertion will throw a java.lang.AssertionError runtime exception..."

Hudson's growth chart
Seiji Sogabe, a Hudson committer, put together Hudson's growth chart. He put together a chart of the hudson.war size from 1.100 to 1.300. This is another way to see the progress in Hudson. Off the top of my head, a big jump in 1.160 or so is probably the native Maven2 support... — Kohsuke Kawaguchi

glassfish croaks
I have three JBI service assemblies running in two Glassfish instances. Two service assemblies are running in one Glassfish node on Windows, the third service assembly is running in a Glassfish node on Linux. The first service assembly commands the second service assembly, receives a response, then the first service assembly commands the third service assembly and receives a response. Everything appears to have worked - but, in reality the Glassfish containing the third service assembly has died. The logs do not show anything... —

How does SynchronizationServlet work?
Here's what I noticed after a period of time using my Glassfish app cluster: - I have 2 servers, appserv01 and appserv02. - DAS running on appserv01 together with a node agent app01-agent. - Another node agent app02-agent running on appserv02. - I have a cluster my-app-cluster running with app01-instance and app02-instance on each server respectively. Typically, when I start up my cluster, the SynchronizationServlet will kick in and be done in about 10 seconds. Quick enough. Let's say I deploy an EAR file, say about 20MBs in size while the cluster is active. The deployment is successful and I can use the application immediately (as expected). However, if I were to stop and restart the cluster at this point of time (after deploying the EAR file)... —
