I use jersey+glassfish to build very small micro-profile applications. It's stable, small and works.
Not a fan of the HK2 dpendency injector though. Maybe that's my general dislike of how convoluted the spec and implementation (of EE di) is.
I hate how sprawling the (other) implementations are, no it is not ok to pull in 90mb dependencies to support things I don't need. These app servers tend to grow into huge uncontrollable messes. Nobody uses standalone containers anymore and forcing people to pull in all or nothing for the embedded version is just asinine engineering.
