Speed up Appd Startup

Sudarshan_Sesha

Hi,

Appd connects to our springboot applications for metrics. Presently appd starts first and takes more than 3 minutes for up and running next our application starts up. We need help in improving in speeding up appd startup time and we want to startup our springboot application in parallel to appd startup instead of waiting for 3 + minutes for appd to startup. 

Thanks in advance for your help

Interested to hear the answer to this one.  At my company it's about 20 seconds between the first and last AppD startup messages, which I think is still way too long.

First message:

Full Agent Registration Info Resolver found system property [appdynamics.agent.applicationName] for application name...

Last message:

Started AppDynamics Java Agent Successfully.

Spring Boot doesn't start until after that, so all the overhead of AppD instrumenting the code comes later.
