You appear to be complaining about specification mandated behaviour. The scan is required as soon as there is an SCI that declares an interest in a class. One might equally ask if you have any plans to fix your poorly configured application. > Is there any suggestions on what to do more to get a faster startup? Use <absolute-ordering /> since that will exclude every JAR from the annotation scan for matches to the SCIs. If you need the SCI scan for some of the JARs you'll have to work with Tomcat's tomcat.util.scan.DefaultJarScanner.jarsToSkip property.
