Igor, Thanks for the info, and the pointer to the Maven Workspace Build view. I wasn’t aware of that view before, and it was very helpful. It does not appear that I have more than 1 Maven builder invocation per project during a clean build, so I’ve ruled that out at least. I wish there was such a view that covered all builders.
