Comment: Note that empty absolute-ordering does not affect scanning of WEB-INF/classes

...

Note: in Tomcat 8 the container-provided SCIs are always discovered, regardless of absolute-ordering. It does not prevent scanning for annotations, but the list of JARs to be scanned will be empty, and thus it will complete quickly. The classes in WEB-INF/classes are always scanned regardless of absolute-ordering. An example of a container-provided SCI is in the WebSocket API implementation jar (tomcat-websocket.jar, tomcat7-websocket.jar) which is included with Tomcat 7 starting with 7.0.47. If you do not need support for WebSockets, you may remove it.

Scanning for web application resources and TLD scanning are not affected by these options.
