I was facing the same problem .This is because open method of DefaultSelenium has timeout of 30000ms, so it waits for 30s for your page to load. You can try this trivial solution.

//selenium is DefaultSelenium instance as private member of the class

        int tryCount =1;

        while((!serverStartTry) && tryCount <= Constants.maxServerTries){
            try{
                this.selenium.open(ReadConFile.readcoFile("pageName"));
                System.out.println("Server started in try no: "+tryCount);
                serverStartTry =true;
            }catch (SeleniumException e) {
                System.out.println("Server start try no: "+tryCount );
                System.out.println("Server Start Try: "+ serverStartTry);
                serverStartTry = false;
                tryCount++;
            }
        }
        if(!serverStartTry){
            System.out.println("Server Not started, no. of attempts made: "+tryCount);
            System.exit(0);
        }
