Indeed it does, most resource managers will be very responsible citizens. That's why writing a custom one is so much fun :-).

This thread is getting a little confusing, because there are at least two different topics being discussed. ;-)

At least.

Images and the like can be kept in some static location, such as {document root}/images/, as is suggested below. However, they may also be kept in the "Web Server Resources" group within your project. Either way, the web server will be handling requests for the image, not the WebObjects application, so performance isn't really an issue.

This isn't strictly true - Web Server Resources have to take an extra trip through a WORequestHandler in order to work out where they live when the page is generated, although the actual serving of the resource is handled by the web server. So there is some overhead associated with using Web Server Resources, although it isn't as much as some people may think. With a heavy load in mind, I would try to minimise their use; but for most real world WO apps, I personally don't feel a compelling argument against their use.

That's why is said isn't "really" an issue. ;-)

But doesn't WOResourceManager do caching of the paths to resources it's already handled, so in most cases it's just spitting out the path with no significant extra work? (Notice how I cover myself once again with that "significant"!)
