Jndi lookup performance

[int2]

Hi everyone,
I have done a simple test on jndi lookup (on a separated client). I just really upset that the average time for the lookup is around 400 ms (local machine) and 500ms (remote machine).
I just wonder is there something wrong with my performance optimization ?

Following is the code of the client

public static void main(String[] args) {
 // TODO Auto-generated method stub

 if (System.getSecurityManager() == null)
 System.setSecurityManager(new RMISecurityManager());
 Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance();

 Properties env = new Properties();
 env.setProperty("java.naming.factory.initial", "org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory");
 //switch to 'localhost:1100' for performance comparison
 env.setProperty("java.naming.provider.url", "192.168.1.2:1099");
 env.setProperty("java.naming.factory.url.pkgs", "org.jboss.naming");
 try{
 long start = System.currentTimeMillis();
 Context ctx = new InitialContext(env);
 Object ref = ctx.lookup("BBean/remote");


 long end = System.currentTimeMillis();
 long el = end - start;
 System.out.println("elapse(ms): " + el);
 }
 catch(NamingException e){
 e.printStackTrace();
 }
 }

Thank you a lot and regards

JNDI initial context connection creation time is most of the time, and may largely be net or classloading overhead. Cache the initial context.

On the same JVM, you don't need to connect remotely, and should be quite fast.
