I'm not sure which version he's using, but there were already some fixes around this on 5.2 and/or 5.3, done by Surdilovic, if I recall well..

I've applied the same sort of approach here, but haven't proposed a pull request, because I didn't have time to check if it was already fixed on 5.4:
https://github.com/leogomes/drools-compiler/commit/e42e3480c4c6a0a0cbfe5f3d198ec493ecf45035

However, the problem of looking up excessively the classpath, specially in cases where we will never find what we are looking for, remains for the compilation step. Other than an OSGI environment, you can notice it also while running on Weblogic 11g with a lot of stuff on your classpath. I tried to start a thread to discuss that on the dev's list sometime ago:

Cheers,
Leo.

Hi Pavel,

I've changed it over to use a stateless session and I'm seeing the same behavior. I've done some debugging and it seems to be very slow loading up the SessionConfiguration due to all of the loading that happens in ChainedProperties.
it could well be that.

When looking for property we search the available classpaths. With OSGi you have to add a lot of classpaths to it, so it searches them all...

Other than telling it not to search the classpath for .properties files, not sure what else we can do here...

Thanks,

Interesting. Normally it should be fast. Try to change your patter and
load binary compiled serialized package from disk. You can find it in
documentation.
Also consider using stateless session. Do you really need stateful session?
