Palash Das commented on MRESOLVER-7: ------------------------------------ You people keep fighting over decency of a PR or deadlocks of multi threaded downloads, but in reality this forces us to pay free money to the cloud providers for CI time. When we have # sufficient network bandwidth # High speed SSD # And good amount of cpu *we still have to pay 3 hrs of CI time just to download 3.4GBs of jar files.* Great collaboration skills guys. Great appreciations towards the OSS efforts that people show on their PRs. Approve the PR, merge it and revert it within 1 month. Awesome reward received. Time will come when we will switch the build tool instead of a dependency plugin. Cheers to gradle / bazel. Those comment fights will be remembered! > Download dependency POMs in parallel > ------------------------------------ > > Key: MRESOLVER-7 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MRESOLVER-7 > Project: Maven Resolver > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: Aether 1.0.2 > Reporter: Harald Wellmann > Priority: Major > Time Spent: 40m > Remaining Estimate: 0h > > h3. Background > When building a project with dependencies not yet available in the local > repository, I noticed that Maven 3.3.9/Aether 1.0.2 first downloads the > dependency POMs _sequentially_ and then proceeds downloading the dependency > JARs with up to 5 threads _in parallel_. > Due to this, when first building a project with a large number of > dependencies, downloading a large number of small POMs may take a lot longer > than downloading the much larger JARs, or even longer than building the > project itself, especially when a repository manager is used which increases > the download latency. > h3. Enhancement > Download POMs of (transitive) dependencies in parallel to significantly speed > up initial builds of large projects. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
