java web start 1.6 too slow !
Hi,
Did you guys notice as JWS 1.6 is so slow at startup.
Whenever i launch my appl, 韙's take up to 10s after downloading, for me to see anything.
It really seems like the appl hanged. for my test and development, i'm using a 2Go Ram/Core DUO pc, and my end users don't have even the quater of that. Meaning the could have to wait longer.
Do anyone experience this WRONG behaviour?
Any tip or workaround is welcome (must used JWS).
Thx for any reply
Ghislain N.

..splash screen? E.G.
http://www.javasaver.com/testjs/jws/04/fire.jnlp
(Note you will only see the splash image
on 'second and subsequent' launches)
That example also prompts for desktop shortcuts,
and provides an icon (for Windows, at least).

I do not know what glassfish/AS9 is, I thought your
concern related to web start in Java 6, for which
JNLP files specifying splash images are certainly
doable.
When 'X' does not do 'Y', use 'Z'* (that does).
* I generally edit my JNLP (and Java source)
files in TextPad, and do builds & uploads using
Ant.
