Aaron Burgemeister commented on DIRSTUDIO-1174:
-----------------------------------------------
I think you were right, but I think the problem was because I had coded that
last change incorrectly; I was setting an empty Schema object, but not setting
the schema to Schema.DEFAULT_SCHEMA, so the forceReload() method did not see a
need to reload; my bad.
I am attaching another fix which, thanks to your help, I think may be complete.
It seems to load the LDIF on a new connection (if it exists), but if it does
not exist then it properly pulls (and writes) the schema from the directory.
On a reload of Directory Studio, as well as a subsequent connection, the cached
schema seems to be used, as it does not request schema repeatedly from the
directory.
Could somebody let me know if this is good enough, and maybe point me in the
direction of how to commit this? I have the git repo setup, and I have an
apache.org account of course, but right now my git repository is setup
anonymously. If I commit this and try to push, are my credentials sufficient
to get the code checked in?
Thank-you for the help so far. It is nice fixing my own things, and much
easier with guidance on where to look as has been provided here.

> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: studio-connection
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0-M13
> Environment: openSUSE Linux (installed on my laptop)
> Sun/Oracle Java 1.8.0_111 (previously 1.7 with same issue)
> Apache Directory Studio 2.0.0 M12 and M13, plus earlier milestones too
> Reporter: Aaron Burgemeister

> Notice the timestamps (bolded near beginning of line) and how they change
> based on whether or not a schema LDIF file was found (bolded near end of
> line) and, presumably, processed. When a file is not found, subsequent files
> are sought immediately without significantly delaying startup.
> These schema files are all under 1 MiB in size, but most of them are several
> hundred KiBs, approaching the 1 MiB size, so depending on what Directory
> Studio is doing as it reads and processes these files, it would seem that
> this introduces the slowness when a file is found.
> Looking for an existing issue I found DIRSTUDIO-1027 which may be related.
> During startup of Directory Studio one of my laptop's eight cores is fully
> utilized, which makes me think this may be more about processing the LDIF
> than just swapping memory due to inefficient data structures, but I am not a
> memory management expert, so I only mention the possibility here in case it
> helps find the root cause quickly.
> My Directory Studio's total startup time: sixty-one (61) seconds.
> Time spent (per strace) reading schema files: fifty-five (55) seconds.
> Estimated non-schema startup time: six (6) seconds.
>
> Steps to duplicate:
> Have a lot, e.g. 100, of stored schema LDIF files from previous connections.
> Startup Apache Directory Studio.
> Expected results: Startup quickly. Processing old schema LDIFs, when most of
> them will not be used at any given time, seems like a waste of time in
> general. Perhaps this can be done only when a connection is accessed in some
> way rather than at startup.
> Actual results: Slow startup.
> Reproducible: I think so, but am not sure why my system has these schema
> LDIFs when others may not.
