I am glad to report that recently we improved [[Netbinox]] so much that [[JDeveloper]] our testing application (together with some parts of [[NetBeans]]) starts faster than in [[Equinox]] itself.

The benefits of our [[netbeans:StartupCache|startup cache]] on cold start of [[JDeveloper]] (with caches) is clearly visible.

Also, we will continue to optimize our system. Right now we are waisting ~5s somewhere soon in the initialization sequence, so the optimal time shall be even better. We are looking towards 30% more efficiency than [[Equinox]]!

One question for the [[OSGi]] gurus however: How can I install a bundle into the container without the [[Equinox]] or [[Felix]] copying the content of my [[JAR]] into their own caches? I've got the answer (thanks): use [[MagicalStrings]]!

During our work on [[NetBeans]] 6.9 we decided to provide smooth support for [[OSGi]]. We started with the [[Netigso]] project - a general infrastructure to plug an [[OSGi]] compliant container into [[NetBeans]] runtime. We also created a subproject called [[Netbinox]] to specifically use [[Equinox]] container. The whole system has been working quite fine for a few months (if you need desktop, [[Swing]] and [[OSGi]], don't hesitate to try), but only recently we focused our attention to [[performance]]. We wanted to give the [[OSGi]] application the same [[performance]] boost we have for [[NetBeans]] modules.

[[NetbinoxPerformance|Performance]] has been my main focus during few recent years. I was member of [[NetBeans]] [[netbeans:Performance|performance team]] and among other [[netbeans:Category:Performance:Improvements|improvements]] we managed to speed the [[NetBeans]] start time from 60s to less than 20s. This has been achieved primarily by eliminating I/O operations which are quite slow when the application starts for the first time. An important piece of the whole picture is also the [[netbeans:StartupCache|startup cache]] which eliminates the need to open [[JAR]] files during first start. As a result the [[NetBeans]] platform become the fastest starting up modular application framework in [[Java]].
