Yeah it's odd as some very clever talented people have passed through there doors, some very mixed feelings towards them.

The JVM is just getting warmed up load testing for that short a period.

Do you know of any sources that show it takes that long to warm up JVM?

It has nothing to do with time and everything to do with the number of times hot paths get executed.

On a server JVM instance a method will have to be executed (by default) 10 thousand times before it is compiled.

There is also a question of how stable the compilation profile is and how likely deoptimizations are but that's a different story.
