Your perm gen is nearly full
CMS Perm : 23152K->23072K(23296K)
so that might be the cause for the collection.
Try increasing the initial size of the perm generation
with -XX:PermSize=<nnn>. Or maybe the maximum
size of the perm gen with -XX:MaxPermSize=<nnn>.
The cms collector does not collect the perm
gen by default. Add the flag
-XX:+CMSClassUnloadingEnabled
to turn on the collection of the perm gen.

See the unix command time(1) for the definitions of
user, sys, and real. Not sure what it is on windows.
Basically they are
user = user application cpu time
sys = system cpu time
real = wall clock time
Yes, it looks like the VM is waiting on something.
