Dear all,
I would like to upgrade the Openfire embedded Jetty web server from 7.4 to 9.1. The primary reason is the speed improvement with SPDY. especially SPDY push. I have fixed all of the compilation errors in building Openfire and implemented the changes required to use the new Connector objects in Jetty 9.x. I am running with Java 8 and everything seems to be working fine.
To have an idea of how fast SPDY is, please visit https://webtide.com/ (developers of Jetty) with a Chrome browser.
