In 1.1.1, the majority of the startup delay is in the console module. Dain suggested it's because we precompile the JSPs, so each one becomes a servlet, so each one becomes a GBean, and starting GBeans is what's slow. I found it hard to believe they're *that* slow, but I don't have any factual basis for disputing the claim... :) In any case, it would be great to investigate and optimize the startup time, or maybe introduce an option for a module that would kick it's startup into a background task or something.
Agreed that some optimization would be nice. However, this isn't really a case of "optimization", I think. Something has changed quite drastically between 1.1.1 and 1.2-SNAPSHOT. We've more than doubled our startup time...
