JBoss EAP 6 stalls recursively scanning exploded deployment during startup
Issue
We are deploying an application that has a symlink to NFS share with a very large number of files. JBoss hangs when starting the server.
In thread dumps, we see:
"DeploymentScanner-threads - 1" prio=10 tid=0x00007f0ad80e2800 nid=0x253e runnable [0x00007f0b18961000]
