Thread: fatjar(oneJar) running very slow

Hi,

The old fatjar (OneJar) that i built three years ago runs faster than the new fatjar that i built recently.
In our production environment that new fatjar is running 4 times slower than the old jar.
I built the old jar using RAD7 IDE but the new one is built using RAD8.
The new jar has some new classes that support the new requirements.
The old and the jars use the same JVM and JDBC driver.
It is getting very hard to identify the reason for the slowness.
Any suggestions from you all?

Thanks
Aadil

Any specific profiler?

If not, a google of "java profiler" will give you a ton of options. JProfiler comes to mind.

Or you might want to take a closer look at the new features you added. Could any of them explain the performance hit?

I just ran the old and new jars in development environment but the processing output is same. Processing the same number of requests approximately in same time.
I will do some testing.
Thanks for your help
