Is Eclipse Faster than Netbeans for Arquillian Testing on a Remote GlassFish Server? Part 2

While putting my test code up on GitHub and writing the readme.md, I ran my NetBeans test code on my 2011 early MacBook Pro. To my surprise the times for both embedded and remote testing were between 25 and 35 seconds. My original blog was based on working on a much much faster Windows 8.1 system that took 16 seconds for embedded but 100 seconds for remote. So I guess we blame:

  • Microsoft Windows 8.1
  • Java on Windows

You can download the Eclipse version of the code at:

and the NetBeans version at:

Some very bright people will be looking at the code and hopefully they will have an explanation for why remote server testing on Windows 8.1 performs so badly.
