Deployment from NetBeans to Glassfish is very slow

I have a project with a few dozen EJBs and a web project that I'm attempting to deploy from NetBeans 7.0.1 on my laptop directly to Glassfish 3.0.1 on a Solaris 10 server. Ignoring the transfer time of copying the ear file, the deployments seem to take a very long time (3 minutes is the fastest I've seen it). The performance of deployments seems to degrade over开发者_运维百科 time, to the point where eventually I have to restart my domain. I've seen a deployment take anywhere from 12-20 minutes after I've redeployed my application a few times.

I deploy by right-clicking my main project in NetBeans and picking "Deploy". What options do I have for making this more usable? What additional information can I provide to help track down the source of the problem?

UPDATE: Letting the most recent deployment run through to completion, it ended with the following error message in my log:

[#|2011-08-20T14:05:54.494-0400|SEVERE|glassfish3.1|javax.enterprise.system.tools.admin.org.glassfish.deployment.admin|_ThreadID=2490;_ThreadName=Thread-1;|Exception while loading the app : EJB Container initialization error java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space |#]

So this does appear to be memory related. The deployment itself ran for over 10 minutes before dying in this manner.

Because of my application's requirements, I had to increase the heap space from the default 512MB allocation to a min/max of 1GB/2GB. This seems to have improved deployment slightly. My typical deployment time is ~1 minute now. It's not stellar, but it's at least tolerable.

This is the result of a serious bug in the weld-integration module of Glassfish. Without this bug the deployment is more than 20!! times faster as before. http://java.net/jira/browse/GLASSFISH-18875
