The Apache Maven team would like to announce the release of Maven Daemon 2.0.0-rc-3.
Maven Daemon is a background process designed to speed up Maven builds by keeping a persistent JVM running, reducing startup time and improving overall build performance. Unlike traditional Maven executions, which launch a new JVM for each build, Maven Daemon maintains a warm JVM instance, caching dependencies and build configurations to optimize execution times. It is particularly useful for developers working on large projects where frequent builds are required. Inspired by Gradle Daemon, Maven Daemon aims to enhance developer productivity while maintaining full compatibility with existing Maven workflows. This release provides binaries based on Maven 4.0.0-rc-3. Maven Daemon 2.0.0-rc-3 is available for download https://dlcdn.apache.org/maven/mvnd/2.0.0-rc-3/ If you have any questions, please consult: - the web site: https://maven.apache.org/ - the maven-user mailing list: https://maven.apache.org/mailing-lists.html - the mvnd issue tracker: https://github.com/apache/maven-mvnd/issues Regards, On behalf of the Apache Maven Team Guillaume Nodet
