Sean Busbey commented on ACCUMULO-2732:
---------------------------------------

I'd rather see this in a contributor guide than in the README. Mostly because 
the README is already very large, and this is an edge case problem.

> Update README build instructions for more Maven heap

> As the Accumulo code base grows, Maven needs more heap available in order to 
> build. Currently, 256 MB appears to be enough, which is more than the default.
> The README should be updated to suggest configuring Maven with more heap, 
> e.g.: add {{MAVEN_OPTS=-Xmx256m}} to .mavenrc. This will help out folks who 
> aren't Maven experts get a successful build.
