Herve; I added the dependency to the parent pom to the docs.

Jason: In the current project I'm working with, I get the following timings:

mvn -o -T 4 clean install : 53 seconds
mvn -o clean install : 50 seconds
mvn -DskipTests -o -T 4 clean install : 14.1 seconds
mvn -DskipTests -o clean install : 16.624 seconds

This is quite a small project with a very limited fan-out hence
limited effect. I exclusively run in offline mode when benchmarking
(which I know is "cheating").

I recommend running with "sufficient" threads, use -T 10. Also, the
plugin loading is heavily synchronized, which can have a very
detrimental effect on for instance level 4 in your graph, if all the 5
nodes on that level are first-time users of the same plugin and this
plugin is slow in construction. (This is a lot more common than one
might think, since those 5 modules end up at level 4 for the same
reason).

This is actually why the concurrent preemptive plugin loading that I
started prototyping has "significant" potential. It will easily make
*every* maven build a second or two faster, mitigate the effects of
artifact resolution and avoid global synchronization points on plugin
loading. Stuart kindly found a few problems for me that I have yet to
fix, which I might consider doing over a glass of something from
northern Italy tonight - I'm anxious to find out to what extent it
breaks things ;)
