In running a single test fixture, I saw the execution time for 14 tests decrease from 15.95 seconds to 12.26 seconds by making a call to iBatis in the [TestFixtureSetup].
These tests are also run with all log4net/ibatis debug information turned off and using the console appender with the log level set to ERROR. I've also implemented something similar in my asp.net app where I make the iBatis call in the global.asax application_start event. I don't have any solid information on if/how much improvement this caused, but my "feeling" is that it helps the initial screen (login) by about 10-25%. --- Ron Grabowski <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I've never done any formal testing on the startup > time for ibatis.
