In my opinion... Yes, drop the telnet and do a web interface to
administrate anything, its worth it.

How huge?

Test it? like automated testing or test it "want to know it works". If
its the second, how about making a simple html file with a file submit
form, add a sitemap entry to a lift application and create a snippet
that parses that file and print the time it takes to crunch it! =) If
you have no idea how to do this I would recomend buying the Lift book
( http://www.apress.com/book/view/9781430224211 which is not quite
easy or polished but its a great way to go head first into the
liftworld)

Calling this job from a web snippet is one way, other is to use mvn
scala:console, but really is fast to set up that snippet, if you need
any help let me know!
