Mark Robert Miller commented on HBASE-23806:
--------------------------------------------

While things have been getting better over the years, build and test running 
tools in general have not gone very far down the road of good efficiency.

In my experience, Gradle easily leads the pack, Maven is trying to match with 
similiar features, but  it's a turbo charger on an Eclipse vs a solid Audi at 
best. But Gradle is mostly living off what it's done for build, which is great, 
but no real focus on tests.

We can do better for special occasions.

> Provide a much faster and efficient alternate option to maven and surefire 
> for running tests.

> With HBASE-23795, the hope is to drive tests with maven and surefire much 
> closer to their potential.
> That will still leave a lot of room for improvement.
> For those that have some nice hardware and a need for speed, we can blow 
> right past maven+surefire.
