Hi All,

A consistent piece of feedback from Spark developers has been that the
Maven build is very slow. Typesafe provides a tool called Zinc which
improves Scala complication speed substantially with Maven, but is
difficult to install and configure, especially for platforms other
than Mac OS.

I've just merged a patch (authored by Brennon York) that provides an
automatically configured Maven instance with Zinc embedded in Spark.
E.g.:

    ./build/mvn -Phive -Phive-thriftserver -Pyarn -Phadoop-2.3 package

It is hard to test changes like this across all environments, so
please give this a spin and report any issues on the Spark JIRA. It is
working correctly if you see the following message during compilation:

    [INFO] Using zinc server for incremental compilation

Note that developers preferring their own Maven installation are
unaffected by this and can just ignore this new feature.

Cheers,
- Patrick
