GroovyServ makes Groovy’s startup time much faster, by pre-invoking JVM as a server.

In software development with script languages, it’s very important that repeat velocity of “try-and-run” is fast enough. It is too long to wait for start-up of Groovy even for 1 second. GroovyServ reduces startup time of the JVM and Groovy significantly. It’s of course dependent on environments, but in most case, it is 10 to 20 times faster than regular Groovy.
