The Slow First Request: Debugging a Jackson `ZonedDateTime` Serializer Cold Path in Spring Boot
📰 Dev.to · Thellu
Debug a slow first request in Spring Boot caused by Jackson ZonedDateTime serializer cold path
Action Steps
- Identify the slow request using logging or profiling tools
- Configure Jackson to use a custom ZonedDateTime serializer
- Implement a caching mechanism to store serialized ZonedDateTime objects
- Test the application to verify the fix
- Analyze the application's startup time to identify potential cold path issues
Who Needs to Know This
Backend developers and DevOps engineers can benefit from this knowledge to improve the performance of their Spring Boot applications
Key Insight
💡 The first request can be slow due to the cold path of the Jackson ZonedDateTime serializer, which can be optimized using custom serialization and caching
