Josh Elser commented on ACCUMULO-2732:
--------------------------------------
I'll pick this up since I suggested an avenue :)
What else besides MAVEN_OPTS are some notable "gotchas" that we would need to
include? Could point out the minimum maven version (defined in the pom), as
well as supported/recommended JDK.
> Update README build instructions for more Maven heap

> Key: ACCUMULO-2732
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-2732
> Project: Accumulo
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: docs
> Reporter: Bill Havanki
> Assignee: Josh Elser
> Priority: Trivial
> Labels: newbie
> Fix For: 1.6.1, 1.7.0
>
>
> 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.
