Sorry for following up again, but it appears the reloadable attribute was NOT the problem. Setting it to false and deploying an unpackable war with classes in WEB-INF/classes and not the jar still takes a long time to start.

What I don't understand is how on a modern computer, registering 2000 locations in memory/on disk to check for changes could take over a minute. Imagine just what it is doing, it isn't even checking for changes yet, its just registering the classes to check for changes. Not to mention, it doesn't really make sense when using an unpackable war. -----Original Message----- From: Filip Hanik - Dev Lists [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, August 23, 2007 5:25 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: Tomcat6, apache2, mod_jk, non-APR, windows 2000, slow server startup with unpacked WAR even then, you should set reloadable="false" the flag name is misleading, all apps are reloadable, regardless of what that setting is (basically autoDeploy="true" -> webapps are reloadable) read up on the reloadable flag, you'll see that it actually would add all 2000 files to be monitored by tomcat, and could have noticeable impact Filip Dan Beaulieu wrote: > Reloadable is true, and unpack is false. > > If we tell it to unpack it'll take a long time to start up, but then > subsequent start ups with out deleting the webapp dir are fast. > > Agreed, reloadable shouldn't have that much of an impact. > > -----Original Message----- > From: Len Popp [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, August 23, 2007 2:43 PM > To: Tomcat Users List > Subject: Re: Tomcat6, apache2, mod_jk, non-APR, windows 2000, slow server > startup with unpacked WAR > > Is it unpacking the war during startup?
