I will create a Jira issue and supply a patch for review.

I checked the commit logs - the double parsing was introduced in rev 1633182.


yes, and no. I did that commit and it was a good enhancement: before that, the 
start component, was parsing the filesystem and was adding to the classpath all 
the jars (including the ones from disabled components).
I introduced the additional parsing to avoid this (and with that commit I could 
remove a useless, if not problematic, Classloader) but I agree that with a 
refactoring we could optimize the code more.
I would appreciate if you could share some notes about how you would like to 
proceed (as there are different ways and some may be better that others).

PS: I am not asking the patch for RTC, I am just asking some details about the 
refactoring you have in mind

I spent the day looking through the OFBiz startup code to see if there
is any way we can shorten the startup time.

Something I noticed that seems odd...

Start.java searches the OFBiz folders for all instances of
ofbiz-component.xml files, parses them, and builds a class path based on
their contents. Then Start.java loads the components using
ComponentContainer.java, and that class also parses ofbiz-component.xml
files. So the ofbiz-component.xml files are parsed twice.

I would like to redesign the component loading a bit to eliminate the
double parsing.

What do you think?
