[jboss-dev] improving AS boot time

Stale was looking at hotspots in AS bootstrap here: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-5224 It seems the increase in AS boot time is not caused by AOP but by the increase in the number of calls to VFS, and I believe increased metadata processing. For the VFS part I created a JIRA to look into optimizing the hotspots http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBVFS-26 AOP is looking in optimizing pointcut matching: http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=135425 But we need to find more hotspots that could be optimized. Ideally, optimization should come last, after all major refactorings are over, but it's good to know where we stand. Cheers /D
