title: How to Speed Up IBM Rational Application Developer/Rational Software Architect
body: <p>I want to know how can I speed up RSA 7.5( which is an IDE by IBM having eclipse under the hood with websphere server runtimes) mainly server start. The first time I start it after computer reboot it loads after, but after that it takes for ever to start/stop the server. The debug mode for server takes for ever to start.</p>
  
  <p>I am using server 7 run time for IBM RSA 7.5.</p>
  
  <p>So bascially RAD/RSA has websphere run times which allows to configure the server runtime start/stop within RAD/RSA. The run time allows you to develop webapps and test time on the server on deploy it on the websphere run time.</p>
  
  <p>The problem I am facing is with the websphere runtime which works fine after computer reboot but is very slow after several deployments/publishing of the same web app.</p>
  
  <p>I would be grateful you give performance tips for speed up RSA server start/shutdown and overall performance tips. I have plenty of memory like 12 GB with i7 Core 6 cores on Win7.</p>
