This is also what we experienced. When you see something like "ClassName.getInstance()", it's an example of the
Singleton Pattern. The first time it is called, the object is constructed, so it takes a little bit of time (see the Lazy Initialization section of the link). calling getInstance() later should be pretty quick, though.
