Ruta process taking long time in Java Workspace - Uima

Question

I tried to mark paragraph which endswith space. In Ruta workspace SpaceBeforeEnter rule ran quickly. But in Java workspace same rule taking more time to excecute. Used versions as follows, uimaj-core version =>2.10.2, ruta-core version =>2.8.1 and ruta-core-ext version =>2.8.1 in both workspace. If I use the below in SCRIPT1, I'm not facing Time issue.

Rule

DECLARE SpaceBeforeEnter;
          RETAINTYPE(BREAK,SPACE,MARKUP); 
          SPACE+?{-PARTOF(Footnote_Block),-PARTOF(Endnote_Block),-PARTOF(TAB),-PARTOF(SpaceBeforeEnter)} MARKUP*?{-PARTOF(Math),-PARTOF(IMG)->MARK(SpaceBeforeEnter,1)} @BREAK; 
          RETAINTYPE; 

Code Snippet:

Initialise Engine and Run Process:

        Ruta script1Ruta = callRuta(Path.Engine.SCRIPT1.ordinal());
        if (script1Ruta.exception == null) {
            script1Ruta.run();  
                 if (script1Ruta.exception != null){
                     throw new Exception("Failed.");
                 }}
        else {
            throw new Exception("Failed.");
        }           
        try {           
        Ruta script2Ruta = callRuta(script1Ruta.getCasIndex(), Path.Engine.SCRIPT2.ordinal());
        script2Ruta.run();  
        }catch(Exception e){
            logger.error(e.getMessage());
        }

CallRuta():

private Ruta callRuta(int script1CasIndex, int engine) {
    int[] engines = new int[1];
    engines[0] = engine;
    return (new Ruta(script1CasIndex, engines));
}

private Ruta callRuta(int engine) {
    int[] engines = new int[1];
    engines[0] = engine;
    return (new Ruta(engines));
}

public Ruta(int casIndex, int[] engines) {
    createEngines(engines.length);
    this.engineIndex[0] = engines[0];
    this.casIndex = casIndex;
    if (casList.size() > casIndex) {
        cas = casList.get(casIndex);
    }
    try {
        File engineFile = Path.getEngineFiles(engineIndex[0]).get(0);
        engine[0] = runScript(engineFile);
        if (cas == null) { // Create new CAS for first script or if cas=null
            cas = engine[0].newCAS();
            artifact = readFile(Path.getXhtmlFile().getAbsolutePath());
            cas.setDocumentText(artifact);
            casList.add(cas);
        } else {
            logger.info("Existing CAS is used: " + casIndex);
        }
    } catch (Exception e) {
        logger.error(e.getMessage());
    }
    
}

run():

public void run()  {
    try {
        engine[0].process(cas);
        if (cas == null) {
            logger.debug("OUPUT CAS is null");
        } else {
            logger.debug("OUTPUT CAS is NOT null");
        }   
        NoException = true;
    } catch (Exception e) {
        logger.error(e.getMessage());
    }}

runScript():

private AnalysisEngine runScript(File engineFile) throws Exception {

    String path = new File(file.toURI()).getParentFile().getAbsolutePath();
    String[] pathsArray = new String[] { path };

    // override the values in the descriptor when creating the description
    AnalysisEngineDescription desc = AnalysisEngineFactory.createEngineDescriptionFromPath(file.getAbsolutePath(),
            RutaEngine.PARAM_SCRIPT_PATHS, pathsArray, RutaEngine.PARAM_DESCRIPTOR_PATHS, pathsArray,
            RutaEngine.PARAM_RESOURCE_PATHS, pathsArray);

    // in case the location of the descriptor is not known...
    URL sourceUrl = desc.getSourceUrl();
    path = new File(sourceUrl.toURI()).getParentFile().getAbsolutePath();
    pathsArray = new String[] { path };

    // set the values in the description
    ConfigurationParameterSettings settings = desc.getAnalysisEngineMetaData().getConfigurationParameterSettings();
    settings.setParameterValue(RutaEngine.PARAM_SCRIPT_PATHS, pathsArray);
    settings.setParameterValue(RutaEngine.PARAM_DESCRIPTOR_PATHS, pathsArray);
    settings.setParameterValue(RutaEngine.PARAM_RESOURCE_PATHS, pathsArray);

    // override the values in the descriptor when creating the analysis
    // engine
    AnalysisEngine ae = AnalysisEngineFactory.createEngine(desc, RutaEngine.PARAM_SCRIPT_PATHS, pathsArray,
            RutaEngine.PARAM_DESCRIPTOR_PATHS, pathsArray, RutaEngine.PARAM_RESOURCE_PATHS, pathsArray);

    // set the values in the analysis engine and reconfigure it
    ae.setConfigParameterValue(RutaEngine.PARAM_SCRIPT_PATHS, pathsArray);
    ae.setConfigParameterValue(RutaEngine.PARAM_DESCRIPTOR_PATHS, pathsArray);
    ae.setConfigParameterValue(RutaEngine.PARAM_RESOURCE_PATHS, pathsArray);

    ae.reconfigure();
    return ae; //returns Analysis Engine
}
