I set AS_DEBUG to true and didn't see anything meaningful:
CLASSPATH=

Commands: [start-domain, domain1]
asadmin extension directory:

.Check for pid file:

It still took a LONG time before anything started. I've attached the
thread dump (jstack <pid>), but I'm not even close to being an expert at
reading these things. The thread dump was taken when the log was stuck at

Any clues?
