lag when restarting tomcat

[Euan Guttridge]

If I bounce tomcat via the /bin/shutdown.sh & /bin/startup.sh scripts it
takes at least 20 seconds until it responds again. This is still after my
war has been unpacked and jsps compiled.. Any suggestions please?
 
Running standalone, on linux 2*700mhz, 1GB. One application 30mb.
 
 
Thanks
