Which JVM?

Is that 5 seconds real time? No, I certainly does not see that on win2k
using javasoft JVMs.

Maybe its scanning CLASSPATH jar files. Do you have write access to the
"cachedir" directory?

If your JVM have some kind of verbose options, try running with
different kind of verbosity enabled. Maybe it will give some clues about
what it is doing in that time.
