Just starting up the trivial Spring application I work on takes multiple seconds. Firing up other services for an integration test can take 30+ seconds. It's ridiculous. The latency makes integration testing unnecessarily tedious. Don't even get me started on Maven -- dev tooling has to reimplement the build system rather than invoking it because the performance is so poor.
