Lightweight portal server for WebSphere Portal development?

I'm doing some portlet development for IBM WebSphere Portal 6.1. However, the deployment process is painfully slow. As this is my first time doing portlet development, I'm not too familiar with the various portal servers out there. I'd like some recommendations for a lightweight portal server on which I can deploy quickly for development.

I believe Liferay has become Sun's adopted strategy, if that has any bearing.

If you are using Websphere Portal server, you can use the lazy load of portlet applications at server startup. This would help in less server startup times as it would not start many administrative applications.

Hope this help you :)
