There is a bug in the AIX file system that leads to very slow Java ImageIO operations on AIX. They will only occur if you call the ImageIO methods from multiple threads.
To avoid the bug, call ImageIO.setUseCache(false); before making any ImageIO calls. And testing on Windows and Linux setting the cache off is no slower so you can set this for all platforms as far as I can tell.
