Slow execution time using struts

Hi, We are developing an app using struts and find the execution time is agonizingly slow. We are using Struts 0.5 and tomcat 3.2. M/cs are 64 mb. The initialization seems to take forever(sometimes more than 1-2 minutes) and is highly frustrating. One of my co-developers was using an older ver
