Paul King commented on GROOVY-11795:
------------------------------------
The time is spent walking the CWD:
https://github.com/apache/groovy/blob/master/subprojects/groovy-groovysh/src/main/groovy/org/apache/groovy/groovysh/jline/GroovyEngine.java#L1052-L1064
This is designed to find source scripts when the user has entered some start
imports, e.g. "import my.package.*". I think it would be unusual for this to
apply to most of the default imports (which it currently does). I'll create a
PR which removes hitting the problem for star imports starting with "java." and
"groovy.", but we'll need to do some more testing.

> Project: Groovy
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Groovysh
> Affects Versions: 5.0.2
> Reporter: Piotr Zygielo
> Assignee: Paul King
> Priority: Minor
>
> As reported on the list:
> [https://lists.apache.org/thread/0z5g0f7t0hlhm8gn20o4gzyyr795pkp2] - it seems
> that currently (5.0.2) getting groovysh to be ready with prompt takes more
> time if the current working directory contains a lot of files.
