I suspect InDesign Server is trying to load a large number of fonts, presets, color profile etc...thus taking time for the SOAP port to be ready for use.
Once you've got an instance running, run a script against it and query for the list of fonts or presets installed and see if they're the source of the startup delay, should be a good starting point to troubleshoot further
var logFilePath = "~Desktop/idslog.txt";
var logFile = File(logFilePath);
if(!logFile.exists)
{
logFile = new File(logFilePath);
}
writeToLog("***PDF Presets***", logFile);
for(i=0; i <app.pdfExportPresets.count(); i++)
{
writeToLog(app.pdfExportPresets[i].name, logFile);
writeToLog(app.pdfExportPresets[i].fullName, logFile);
}
writeToLog("***Fonts***", logFile);
for(i = 0; i < app.fonts.count(); i++)
{
writeToLog(app.fonts[i].fullName, logFile);
}
function writeToLog(logString, theLogFile)
{
theLogFile.writeln(logString);
}
