APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• If there are many instances of xsd:import in the definitions
  of a business object and many  WSDL interfaces in the project,
  such as
  
  <xsd:import
  namespace="http://www.ibm.com/domain/common/messages/v1_0"
  schemaLocation="../../../../../domain/common/messages/v1_0/BaseS
  erviceRequest.xsd">

  This performance issue occurs because the artifact loader
  scans the module &#162;&#226;&#130;&#172;&#226;&#132;&#162;s EAR file for business object definitio
  and WSDL interfaces, trying to locate the XSD file that is
  specified at "schemaLocation=" in the EAR file, and will
  traverse all the JAR files in the EAR file until the XSD file
  is found.
  

Problem conclusion

• A fix is available for IBM BPM V8.5.0.0 that creates a cache
  for the exact location of the schema in the EAR file during
  deployment, therefore preventing the performance lag.
