title: Lightweight WebLogic development environment
body: <p>We just started a project in ADF, Oracle's Java EE framework. Usually we develop in Tomcat, then deploy into the production WebLogic servers.</p>
  
  <p>But we realized ADF requires a WebLogic server installed locally to develop in Eclipse/JDeveloper. This is <strong>really</strong> heavyweight, even configured as dev, it is killing our machines, and taking a long time to deploy.</p>
  
  <p>So, are there any configuration parameters we could tweak so WebLogic takes as few resources as possible? Are there any alternatives we could use?</p>
  
  <p>We are mostly concerned about memory (it is taking a wonderful 800MB,) and startup time (~2 minutes)</p>
