> The Zinc Nailgun server can be used to speed up compilation of Scala projects
> (like Spark) considerably. For example, building Spark without Zinc running
> takes about 26 mins in my experience, but with Zinc running it takes only
> about 14 mins.
> This patch causes Zinc to be installed in /usr/local/zinc by the
> bigtop_toolchain, though it must still be started by whatever process (e.g.,
> Jenkins) executes the build by running "/usr/local/zinc/bin/zinc -start"
> before kicking off the build.
> See https://github.com/typesafehub/zinc and
> http://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/building-spark.html#speeding-up-compilation-with-zinc
> for more information about Zinc and using it with a Spark build.
