When I run a project in a virtual machine on our network it takes a huge amount of time to build the deployment structure - here is the log: Buildfile: H:\BA\1 Projects\1 Mendix\Applications\MTFC-A-main\deployment\build_core.xml compile: [javac] Compiling 244 source files to H:\BA\1 Projects\1 Mendix\Applications\MTFC-A-main\deployment\run\bin [javac] Note: H:\BA\1 Projects\1 Mendix\Applications\MTFC-A-main\javasource\communitycommons\actions\getDTAPMode.java uses or overrides a deprecated API.

In a standalone machine, off the network, this process takes 15 seconds and everything works ok. I know this is probably a network issue, but our technicians don't have an explanation. This isn't model specific. Can anyone offer any advice as to what might be causing the problem? Many thanks, David

How many jar files are in your userlib folder? When migrating to Mendix 5 you may have selected all of them but that shouldn't be necessary normally. Rezipping these jars (which are already zip files) takes a lot of time, especially when using poorly performing IO on virtual machines.

Is your H: drive mapped to another machine? The Modeler performs poorly when your project directory is not located on the same physical machine. During deployment lots of files are being written and if that happens on a network share, performance will be bad.
