I don't think there is any performance difference between embedded and external maven runtime. They both started in separate JVM to prevent memory leaks and to provide debugging support.

Also note that embedded Maven is version 2.1, which still have compatibility issues with Maven 2.0.x which you probably using in the command line. I would say that currently it is actually a good idea to configure external Maven 2.0.x in m2eclipse and use it as default to get the same results as

Thanks for the clarification. I am thinking of copying my artifactory settings and other stuff from my global settings to my user settings file, so that I can use the embedded version's speed. Just worried about the maintenance of two settings files. Is it advisable to just remove the settings file from the conf directory and just have a user based settings file?

    Mohammed,

     m2eclipse never used M2_HOME environment variable nor system
    property. Also note that configuration UI been changed in 0.9.4
    release. See

     In order to use external Maven installation and its settings you
    need to register it in Window / Preferences... / Maven /
    Installations and set as default. Then its settings will be used
    by default.

        Ah, I understand now.
        Even though it doesn't allow me to change it, i think it picks
        it up from the default global settings right?  I have seen it
        appear in windows, but in Ubuntu it doesn't show up.  I
        thought it might be related to M2_HOME, so I added it to both
        the linked resource in eclipse as well as my environment file.
         It did not show up.  What am I doing wrong here?

           It is not currently possible to change global settings.xml file
           used by embedded maven due to
           http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3611. You can, however,
           override all settings you need, including location of local
        maven
           repository, in user settings.xml file which is configurable in
           m2eclipse preferences
        (Window->Preferences->Maven->Installations).
           Let me know if this does not answer your question.

                  Hello,

                  I upgraded to the new version, and I found this
        nifty embedded
                  version.  Its pretty fast.
                  I wanted to change the global settings and my m2
        repository
               for it,
                  but it wud not allow me to do tht.  What was the
        reason to
               disable
                  tht feature?
                  I am using Ubuntu Hardy Heron, btw.
