Do you mean the first request after starting Tomcat ? If yes then this is quite normal, Jahia loads up a lot of data from the DB on the first request.
If you mean after Jahia has been idle for a long time, this could also be the need to recreate session data that could slow the load, but it shouldn't be very long.

we have a 3.1 jahia site on tomcat which from time to time takes a long time to load at the first request
(usually the homepage, but it also happens when directly accessing a particular page).
(btw: with "from time to time" I mean: difficult to predict, apparently not related to heavy load,
regardless of the uptime of tomcat, etc ..)
Once the first page is loaded, browsing speed is normal again.
The problem can only be fixed by restarting the tomcat engine. We ruled out network problems: we
rather think this is a problem of instantiating the session, since browsing speed is normal after the
first page has loaded.
Has anyone ideas how to investigate this problem? Probably using one of the tools mentioned here
(http://java-source.net/open-source/profilers) but I'm looking for hands-on info, preferably in relation
to tomcat.
thx
