I've seen something like this, and we were able to diagnose it on a Unix environment by using a program called truss (http://www.scit.wlv.ac.uk/cgi-bin/mansec?1+truss) which allows you to watch every file that is getting read. I don't know of a Windows equivalent. Most Java profilers I know of do not help you find IO related issues very well, so you might want to look for a lower level OS tool to see what's changing. What we found was that the application was looking for a class that did not exist. Java does not hold a cache entry for "class not found", so it kept opening every jar in the entire classpath to find said class, numerous times for a single http request because of where this library was used. You might want to check all the resin/lib and WEB-INF/lib and whatever other classes to see if a non-critical class is missing but being searched for over and over. Hope this helps. -- Serge Knystautas Lokitech >> software . strategy . design >> http://www.lokitech.com p. 301.656.5501 e.
