Research direction

No source file, test, or NetBeans component is identified. Reproduce the delay with a default Spring Boot project on Windows using Apache NetBeans 21 and JDK 17, then trace compile-on-save until the target class-file generation is located. Done means the reported 5–30 second delay is reduced and verified with a regression test or documented measurement.
