Speeding up commit

[Aron Lurie]

Hello,
I have a situation where I am trying to persist ~2500 objects all at 
once. After the objects are persisted, the program ends, so there is no 
need for any functionality after the objects have been persisted. I am 
just trying to dump these objects to the DB as fast as possible.

Using Eclipse's TPTP profiler, I have timed the EntityManager.commit() 
operation to take 586 seconds. Of that, cumulatively almost 455 seconds 
are spent inside of ~2500 calls to StateManagerImpl.proxyFields(bool, 
bool). From the point that I start commit(), those 2nd class objects are 
not mutated by my program, and I do not need to use any of these objects 
after commit() finishes. From what I have read, it would seem that I 
have no need for my objects to be proxied, and from my tests, it seems 
that removing proxies would speed things up significantly. Am I missing 
something? Or is there a way to turn off proxies? And if not, how can I 
speed up the proxying operation?

Thanks,
Aron
