Filip Pizlo commented on RVM-714:
---------------------------------
We (Daniel and I) found the reason. It's InetAddress's static initializer. That was the fix for RVM-700 - running it eagerly. It turns out this static initializer takes a few seconds, because it tries to resolve 0.0.0.0 to a name (getHostByAddr), which on all of our machines at least, takes a long time.
This is a classpath bug. InetAddress should be initialized at some point no matter how you look at it. And it shouldn't take that long.
The fix I would propose is to put an entry of 0.0.0.0 into java.net.ResolverCache, at least, provided that we know, for all reasonable platforms, what 0.0.0.0's name is "supposed" to be according to Java.

> r15151("Fix for RVM-700, failure for ServerSockets to work.") has caused a large amount of class loading to occur during VM.boot. This has increased the boot time by a factor of 10 on my system (0.5s to 5s).
