java - How I can speed up the build process using Maven

Question

I am using Maven as build tool. Presently I am building using this command.

Right click on the project > Maven clean.

After this:

Right click on the project > Maven install

It is taking 3 minutes for me. Is there any way to speed up my process?

I have already looked at this. But I did not understand this. Can any one hep me?

If you're using multiple maven modules within a project, this might work for you: I'm using Maven mostly via console, so I have no experience with this under eclipse, but as of Maven 3, Maven supports parallel builds. This feature works out of the box, but its success depends a lot on the plugins you use, as 3rd party plugins might not be designed to work that way.

To activate parallel builds, start maven with the -T parameter:

mvn clean install -T 2

builds with 2 threads.

mvn clean install -T 2C

builds with 2 threads per CPU.

Maven will determine a build order and parallelize as much as possible.

Sadly, if your project module structure is very linear, ie project A --> project B --> project C, this won't do you any good.
