Abstract
A method and apparatus for managing a run-time environment is provided for improving performance and scalability of networked computer systems. In one example of the invention, a method starts by loading a class file, the class file specifying a class that includes a static class variable and a static initializer to initialize the static class variable. The static initializer is then invoked to initialize the static class variable. The class and the initialized static class variable are then saved in a second class file. The second class file is then loaded into a shared memory, the second class file including the class and the initialized static class variable.
