Customer X has asked for ways to improve the startup time of a Java process he uses. The problem is, it is not run through a jar file, but rather ‘jnlp’ (which I am assuming indicates it is a java webstart application)
StartUserWorx.jnlp
Is there a way to convert this to a JAR file and then have the user invoke the application locally, and include a startup flag to the JRE to allocate more ram to the process?
The user is getting a bit frustrated, because other workers in the same office use the same application on almost identical machines, and yet his process seems to always take a much longer time to load (a few minutes rather than a few seconds).
Check the network settings of the user. It is my experience that minute long delays often is caused by DNS misconfiguration, bad routing tables (DNS must time out when no positive response is received), or simply an incorrect lmhosts file.
