[aspectj-users] AspectJ & static advice

Hello,

In the AspectJ FAQ it says that "In the absence of a benchmark suite, AspectJ probably has an
acceptable performance for everything except non-static advice. Introductions and static advice
should have extremely small performance overheads compared to the same functionality implemented
by hand."

Yes, in the Recent Changes - 0.8beta2 document it says that static advice has been removed from
the language "The most significant change in the language semantics is the removal of static
advice. Advice declarations may no longer be static, and all advice runs in the context of an
aspect instance."

Thus, my question is whether the statement in the FAQ still makes sense with respect to the new
versions of AspectJ. Can advice still be static to avoid (to paraphrase the quote in the FAQ)
"non-acceptable performance".

Thanks,
WD.
