Joel, I'm not sure of a way around this, but I found the majority of the
time spent was on the ejb wrappers being compiled. Switching from javac to
jikes got my deployment time down from over 8 minutes to 15 seconds (and a
massive increase in time it takes to compile jsp's).
Jikes: http://www10.software.ibm.com/developerworks/opensource/jikes/
To get orion to use it for compiling, add to config/server.xml:
<compiler executable="/path-to/jikes"
classpath="/path-to-real-jdk/jre/lib/rt.jar" />
