How to Speed up the Maven Build Time
Recently I found out tool to speed up build time of your Maven based projects.
Maven Daemon is let's say maven wrapper which provides faster build time.
Some facts about Maven Daemon:
- build executes in long living background process
- native executable
- use multiple CPU cores to build modules in parallel
More information about Maven Daemon you can find in github repository.
Maven Daemon Installation
Use sdk or brew to install Maven Daemon
$ sdk install mvnd
$ brew install mvndaemon/homebrew-mvnd/mvnd
You can verify installation with
➜ ~ mvnd --version
mvnd native client 0.2.0-darwin-amd64 (0cd0b3f04692b7970fda06c206c1fbaac68fe9ce)
Terminal: org.jline.terminal.impl.PosixSysTerminal with pty org.jline.terminal.impl.jansi.osx.OsXNativePty
Apache Maven 3.6.3 (cecedd343002696d0abb50b32b541b8a6ba2883f)
Maven home: /usr/local/Cellar/mvnd/HEAD-1c610c3/libexec/mvn
Java version: 15.0.1, vendor: N/A, runtime: /usr/local/Cellar/openjdk/15.0.1/libexec/openjdk.jdk/Contents/Home
Default locale: en_GB, platform encoding: UTF-8
OS name: "mac os x", version: "10.14.6", arch: "x86_64", family: "mac"
Maven vs Maven Daemon build time comparison
For testing purposes I will compare build times for AEM project. Project was build 2x times before measurement.
This measurement is not perfect, since a lot of factors can affect final build time (+- few seconds), but it's fair enough to see a difference.
For testing purposes I have used AEM Project Archtype version 24.

Note:
Your AEM project build will fail with Maven Daemon if you use bnd-maven-plugin version older than 5.1.0
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal biz.aQute.bnd:bnd-maven-plugin:5.0.0:bnd-process (bnd-process) on project my-site.core: bnd error: null: ConcurrentModificationException -> [Help 1]
Sum up
As test results shows, Maven Daemon build time is approximately 2x faster then normal maven. Installation is pretty much straightforward and so far didn't notice any downsides, so why not use it and save some time.
Update :
Not 100% sure, but I think installation of Maven Daemon has override my maven configuration (settings.xml).
