Java Application taking long time to execute Groovy scripts which are precomplied - groovy

Question

I have my groovy script precomplied on server start (I have stored groovy scripts as varchar in DB) up like below in Map ,
final Binding sharedData = new Binding();
final GroovyShell shell = new GroovyShell(sharedData);
script= shell.parse(rs.getString("VALIDATION_SCRIPT"));
Now when checking the validation on input records based on specified validation id i try to execute the precompiled script as below.
Script scrpt = Validation.getScript(); //getting from cache
scrpt.getBinding().setVariable("attributes", objects);
scrpt.getBinding().setVariable("tools", scrpt);
GroovyResponse gr = scrpt.evaluate("tools.valid(attributes)");
but here my application takes long time to evaluate..i guess heap size also gets increase and GC takes place. Can any one help me if there are better way to do it. with out impacting the performance.
one of My groovy script :
import com.fis.derivatives.utility.generic.model.GroovyResponse;
def valid(Map mapInput){
GroovyResponse obj = new GroovyResponse()
if(mapInput.inputVal.equals("1")){
obj.setStatus(true) ;
obj.setResultValue("B") ;
} else if(mapInput.inputVal.equals("2")){
obj.setStatus(true) ;
obj.setResultValue("S") ;
}else{
obj.setStatus(false);
obj.setComment("Error : Unable to extract BUY_SELL. Please check BS value "+mapInput.inputVal+".")
}
return obj;
}

1 - I have doubts about your cache. getting from cache without any key is strange...
Script scrpt = Validation.getScript(); //getting from cache
2 - rework a little the call of groovy:
Script scrpt = Validation.getScript(); //getting from cache
//we will pass attributes as a parameter to method
//scrpt.getBinding().setVariable("attributes", objects);
//not necessary to pass to script link to itself
//scrpt.getBinding().setVariable("tools", scrpt);
GroovyResponse gr = scrpt.invokeMethod​("valid", objects);
