What request? Have you debugged and narrowed it down? There is no such thing as the best configuration of standalone.xml. It all depends on the application and its usage along with the configurations. A better way to ask for help is to first narrow down the issue and then post the relevant details.

[rameshchokkapu]

Thanks for Reply..

xml requests will come to my server through socket..

yes i was narrowed down

1) connections are ok.. not destroying.. connections are return to pool.

2) Threads are  also reusing..(Thread pool)

3) Ejb insatances also fine...

These things only i have checked..

Is any thing else need to be check?

[nickarls]

How long does the work itself take (add System.out timestamps at beginning and end of the actual work)?

[rameshchokkapu]

Thank u for Reply,

i will save Request start time end time into DB.

my minite wise stat.

minitue  number of RQs      avg           max      stddev

1             64                      3.6719          45        9.0555

2             65                       3.9077          32        8.5354

5            49                      7.2857            39        10.5926

[nickarls]

Can you futher break it down so that xml processing is timed separately from DB access?

[rameshchokkapu]

Thank you for reply

i didn't get where it is taking more time..

i think that my standalone.xml configuration doesnot suite to Application.

look at standalone xml, please tell me any configuration need to be change.

[wdfink]

Without knowledge of the application it will be impossible to solve your problems.

We can help you to find the issue, but we can't do your work.

The main issue is to find where the time is spend and what is the difference between JBoss4 and AS7.

Add logging (best with a logger to see the timestamps) in your code if you not have it already.

Check whether it takes time to get the DB connection or, if you use a remote invocation, to reach the server.

If you have such information we might able to help you out.
