Hi sorry for the lack of update - support for the JDK HttpClient was added back in [1.11.0](https://github.com/DataDog/dd-trace-java/releases/tag/v1.11.0) Note the current release is [1.21.0](https://github.com/DataDog/dd-trace-java/releases/tag/v1.21.0)

The [1.14.0](https://github.com/DataDog/dd-trace-java/releases/tag/v1.14.0) release contains a number of startup improvements that could help here

Startup overhead was reduced by https://github.com/DataDog/dd-trace-java/pull/5026 - this feature also lets you persist type-matching data using `DD_RESOLVER_CACHE_DIR=` which means less overhead when restarting. There have been further minor improvements since...

FYI, the change to exclude those `javax` packages by default was merged in #4422 and will be available in the 1.3.0 release.

Hi - since 1.38.1 you can now add the OTel R2DBC instrumentation at runtime to `dd-java-agent`: https://docs.datadoghq.com/opentelemetry/interoperability/instrumentation_libraries/?tab=java For example: ``` # this demo requires Java 21 and Maven 3 on...

Could do something by checking file modification times - btw, pull requests are welcome if you feel like fixing this yourself.
