作为 a.jar 文件的程序比在 eclipse 中运行时慢 5 倍

Question

Currently the speed to run a test function is about 5× slower when done with the jar file vs. doing it in Eclipse. How should I install the jar file so the speed is similar?

I am using maven. I am using outside dependencies. I just need to know what is the best code for the build (in the pom file) to make it run as fast as possible, with no concern for copy rights. The only thing I need is for the program to work on a machine without maven installed.

Also, based on the last time I asked this, I will add more info that might be useful. Java is up to date. All is stored on the C drive. There is no outputs that is slowing this down, and it is all text based. There is a lot of reading and writing on files going on that take time to do, but it took 16.6 seconds using Eclipse and 89.6 using the jar file.

Here is the pom file, including the dependencies:

Also, for someone reason it will not install when it was before. I get an error "Source option 5 is no longer supported. Use 7 or later."

I am new to Eclipse and making executable jar files on Eclipse, so I appreciate the help.

Answer 1

I figured it out. I needed more memory when running it. I ran it with this and works faster now:

java -Xms512m -Xmx1024m -jar mainProgram.jar
