Hi, You can have a look to this plugin https://maven-incremental-build.dev.java.net/
I know it doesn't solve completely the problem but now after a modification or an update from scm, you can compile without a clean and be sure that all the children of a modified module will be recompiled. Now, our builds are safe and their times is more often than 5 minutes rather than 11 or 12, depends if modifications are in hight level modules or not. I still search the way to block the build process for modules with no modifications on her dependencies so if someone has more informations on how achieve it, it would be fine.
