-------------------------------------
Related issue, particularly this comment:
https://github.com/google/error-prone/issues/994#issuecomment-383141355
Seems to correlate to what we see, even with all checks disabled, it is painful.
> errorprone cause large slowdown of compileJava/compileTestJava

> Key: LUCENE-9879
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-9879
> Project: Lucene - Core
> Issue Type: Task
> Reporter: Robert Muir
> Priority: Major
>
> Errorprone hooks itself into the java compiler (compileJava/compileTestJava).
> So this static analysis runs, even if you are just recompiling to run tests.
> It causes javac to run 3x slower at the moment.
> With errorprone:
> {noformat}
> 188.26 sec. compileTestJava
> 180.24 sec. compileJava
> {noformat}
> Without errorprone:
> {noformat}
> 52.54 sec. compileTestJava
> 49.26 sec. compileJava
> {noformat}
> The worst part is: if you look at the config, essentially all error-prone
> checks are disabled. So we aren't getting value out of it, and it slows
> builds significantly.
> I'd like to have a discussion about it:
> * should we keep it enabled?
> * should it really hook into compileJava/compileTests or maybe be a separate
> task (e.g. precommit only)
> I'm raising this because it is so slow, that e.g. Uwe mentioned on other
> issues the possibility of switching to ECJ compiler to try to speed up
> builds, but, it turns out javac is actually fast. The slowness is error-prone.
> For sure if we are going to use it, I'd like to at least turn on checks and
> get value out of the thing. But it is unclear to me how many of these checks
> aren't already met by javac or ecj (which frankly, we still haven't enabled
> to do good analysis yet, although the situation is improving)
