David Lloyd resolved AS7-2253.
------------------------------

      Assignee: David Lloyd  (was: Jason Greene)
    Resolution: Rejected

There are many factors which come into play.  Not the least of which is, your OS may page in and out chunks of memory, which slows things down, before it "catches on" to what you're doing.  In other words, the second time you start, your OS page cache is populated with AS bits.

We cannot control factors such as the speed of a hard drive, so a report of one slow-ish startup (especially when the second is faster) is not something we can really do anything about.  We always have an ongoing goal of a faster boot time, but this is not the kind of thing which can be codified in a JIRA issue - there's no concrete goal to achieve here.  Therefore we really cannot accept this issue.

> First time I executed ./standalone.sh it took 6.7 seconds.  The second time was 3.238.  Understand that the first time it's creating files/etc, but that still seems pretty long compared to the speeds being advertised.
