I have latest of ReadyAPI and the startup is extremely slow. Opening requests is slow as well. Only two small projects are open. Everything else is closed.
Takes more time for Ready API to launch than my computer boot time!!
Try this,
Download nightly build 64 bit and add these settings,
https://support.smartbear.com/downloads/readyapi/nightly-builds/
In your Ready API installation folder, in the Contents directory, please find the vmoptions file and open it in a text editor.
Add these lines to the file:
Edit the vmoptions file in Ready API Pro installation folder\bin folder for windows and for Mac Applications/Ready-API-Home.app/Contents/ to accommodate following changes,
Set Xms128m and -Xmx to 4000 if your ram is 4GB or 8000 if its 8GB
-XX:MaxPermSize=128m
-XX:MinHeapFreeRatio=40
-XX:MaxHeapFreeRatio=70
-Dsoapui.jxbrowser.disable=true
-Dtest.history.disabled=true
Once you do this, go to .readyapi folder in user folder > delete the contents of the db directory.
Close and restart Ready API

This worked for me to fix slow startup in v2.5.0
I know this is an old topic but it worked instantly, I think it was mainly because I had over 100MB of data in the db folder.
Deleting the contents of the db folder does the trick for me (speaking of ReadyApi version 2.6.0).
Editing .vmoptions apparantly did not have that impact. It did for version 2.4.0 however.
It seems to me this is a particular issue of version 2.6.0.
Looks like I have to do the deletion step once in a while, unless there is a smarter move.
I tried but it did not help. It took 1 minute 45 seconds to load. Bellow is the new config for vmoptions.
I have iCore7 and 16GB RAM on my machine. Machine is not the problem.

Go in File > Preferences > Ready API > Change Request editors for SOAP to Source and REST to request. Close and reopen see if that helps.
