I  am using JBoss EAP 5.1 to deploy my web application, the backend is teradata. The performance of the app is slow since time taken to fetch datafrom backend is high.It takes as long as 20 -30 seconds sometimes. The driver used is com.teradata.jdbc.TeraDriver and jars are tdgssconfig-13 and terajdbc4-13. I have used spring jdbc template to connect and fetch the data.It seems the teradata drivers are causing issue.Can somebody let me know the reason for this.Are there any configuration changes to be done on JBoss server side to increase performance.

OS: Linux.
