I attempted to write the full translated content to src/content/blog/en/spring-boot-application-startup-performance-tuning.md, preserving the existing frontmatter and adding the new sections (TL;DR, startup endpoint JSON, BufferingApplicationStartup vs FlightRecorderApplicationStartup, AOT pre-generated artifacts, build-time-fixed settings, Native Image comparison table, and Related Articles). Please approve the write to apply it.

About this article
This article deepens your understanding of Spring Boot. Spring Boot apps starting too slowly, causing Pods to miss readiness probes, or breaking your focus during local rebuilds—this guide solves those problems with practical steps. Learn how to identify bottlenecks with Actuator startup, then progressively apply lazy initialization, AutoConfig exclusion, CDS, and AOT to consistently reduce startup time.
