Hi

We are using Hibernate persistence framework with Spring container in our project. We had a legacy database and we had to re-use the same schema. We used MyEclipse generate all the corresponding .hbm files. We are using OC4J to launch the application.

We are facing very serious problem . At the time of server start , it is taking more than 18 min, to load and build OR graph. Excessively in development environment, every , restart of the application consumes 20 min. drastically reduces the productivity

We do have more than 1300 table in the database. Our acceptable start-up time is max 2 min. . Please help me to reduce the start-up time. You can suggest me any design pattern / framework / Tools

Thanks you

but 20 minutes is *insane*....how big are your tables/classes (e.g. how many methods do they have on average) ?

yes it is, since we are re-engineering the existing system . The database is monolithic , and more than 1900 tables and there are table with 40 columns .
