On my fairly new Windows XP Pro SP 2 box, I'm running Maven 2.2.1 against the latest stable JDK (1.6.0_17), and am encountering extraordinarily slow compile times, even for fairly small projects: they can take 1-3 minutes apiece, and we have a couple dozen. Searching on the subject turned up this thread:
http://old.nabble.com/Slow-maven-compile-after-upgrading-JDK-from-1.5-to-1.6 -td23501164.html which in turn links to several bugs in Sun's bug database which are as yet unresolved. Does anyone know of a workaround in the interim short of compiling on a different OS or downgrading the JDK (or source/target elements in maven-compiler-plugin) to 1.5? This is crippling my productivity. Thanks in advance, Damon
