Sun Java System Application Server Enterprise Edition 8.2 Performance Tuning Guide

Disable Auto-deployment

Enabling auto-deployment will adversely affect deployment, though it is a convenience in a development environment. For a production system, disable auto-deploy to optimize performance. If auto-deployment is enabled, then the Reload Poll Interval setting can have a significant performance impact.

Disable auto-deployment with the Admin Console under Stand-Alone Instances > server (Admin Server) on the Advanced/Applications Configuration tab.
