I ran across this blog entry where the comments include some great pointers on writing efficient JSF.

Time Spent on a JSF Development
Tuesday, September 14th, 2010Facelet Face Off on WLP
Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010If you chose the Facelet aspect for your WLP project in 10.3.2, your portlets will use the “native” (i.e., WLP-only) portlet bridge rather than the “JSR-329″ (i.e., crystal ball) bridge. In case you need to reuse your portlets in another portal framework.
I haven’t had time to try it out, but in theory one could write the .portlet file by hand and still get the best of both worlds.
