It should not take that long. It only takes a couple of seconds for me. Try testing it with a loopback DB9 connector or a USB to RS232 adapter in a loopback configuration. Also, try posting the code so someone can help you. I am struggling with a serial program myself though.

       double timebefore = System.currentTimeMillis()/ 1000;
    com = CommPortIdentifier.getPortIdentifiers();

    double timeafter = System.currentTimeMillis() / 1000;
    double time = timeafter -timebefore ;
    System.out.println(time);

For me the time will be 31 sec =(
