Here's a crude benchmark on a Linux box (GCE n1-standard-4). zinc gets the assembly build in range of SBT's time.
mvn -DskipTests clean package 15:27 (start zinc) 8:18 (rebuild) 7:08 ./sbt/sbt -DskipTests clean assembly 5:10 (start zinc) 5:11 (rebuild) 5:06 The dependencies were already downloaded, and the whole build was cleaned in between. These are smallish in comparison with time to run tests. I admit I didn't run them here in the interest of time and because I assumed zinc doesn't help that.
