CAS bootstraps a number of services and can be slow to reach an operational
state. I ran into another situation which contributed to a very slow load
time, but I don't if it would apply to you. We use local VMs with vagrant
and VirtualBox for development. I found that when I ran a new WAR file from
a location that was shared from my host filesystem into the VM, the load
time was extremely slow. Simply copying the WAR to the local file system
made a dramatic difference. Could your filesystem be something to look at?
