So it seems like, while Maven clean/compile/test takes at most a few minutes, 
each of our builds on Jenkins takes many hours:

Build #18 Took 9 hr 24 min
Build #19 has been executing for 4 hr 13 min

It seems like they're getting hung up on some "archiving" step. For example, 
consider:

https://builds.apache.org/job/cTAKES-trunk/19/console

I see:

[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] BUILD SUCCESS
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] Total time: 13:32.809s
[INFO] Finished at: Tue Oct 23 17:42:21 UTC 2012
[INFO] Final Memory: 25M/345M
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------

So I know the whole `mvn install` takes less than 15 minutes. The rest of the 
time seems to be waiting on things like:

[JENKINS] Archiving 
/home/jenkins/jenkins-slave/workspace/cTAKES-trunk/ctakes-distribution/target/apache-ctakes-3.0.0-incubating-SNAPSHOT-src.zip
 to 
/home/hudson/hudson/jobs/cTAKES-trunk/modules/org.apache.ctakes$ctakes-distribution/builds/2012-10-23_17-28-31/archive/org.apache.ctakes/ctakes-distribution/3.0.0-incubating-SNAPSHOT/ctakes-distribution-3.0.0-incubating-SNAPSHOT-src.zip

What are these? And how important are they?

I personally would have expected Jenkins to report build errors within 15-30 
minutes. Definitely not 9 hours later…
