Improving JBoss 5 slow startup

We upgraded from JBoss 4 (and JDK 5) to JBoss 5 (and JDK 6). The problem is that the start time has gone from 1.5 minutes (on JBoss 4) to more than 4 minutes.

I'm using JBoss 5.1.0 with a Macbook pro (2.26ghz 4gb) without applications it start in 54s

15:00:26,449 INFO  [ServerImpl] JBoss (Microcontainer) [5.1.0.GA (build: SVNTag=JBoss_5_1_0_GA date=200905221634)] Started in 54s:720ms

I made a new configuration based on the "default". The JMS dataosurce points to a Postgres database instead of the "Hypersonic Database" (in memory database)
