I am experiencing a problem with slow start up times for Tomcat 7. I
have done some testing by tweaking configuration parameters both on
Linux CentOS kernel version 2.6.18 and on Windows 7 using this link as
my primary guide: http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/HowTo/FasterStartUp
and managed only a modest improvement.

The improvements seemed to result when I added
metadata-complete="true" attribute to the element of my
WEB-INF/web.xml file and when I added the names of almost all the jars
we use for our application to the
tomcat.util.scan.DefaultJarScanner.jarsToSkip property in
conf/catalina.properties file.

I've also used this JAVA_OPTS in the setenv.sh file:

JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -server -Xms1536m -Xmx1536m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m
-XX:NewRatio=2 -XX:+UseParallelGC -XX:ParallelGCThreads=2
-Dsun.rmi.dgc.client.gcInterval=1800000
-Dsun.rmi.dgc.server.gcInterval=1800000
-Dorg.apache.jasper.runtime.BodyContentImpl.LIMIT_BUFFER=true "

but actually saw my start up times increase slightly.

Our QA and production environments are on Linux CentOS so I'm hoping
to get more information on improving Tomcat 7 start up times in that
environment.

My primary role is java developer and I don't have much system
administration experience so I appreciate any input. Thank you for
your time and suggestions.
