Josh Elser commented on ACCUMULO-2732:
--------------------------------------

[~busbey], my intent of this issue was to create a BUILDING (or similarly 
named) file that encompasses the basic information to build Accumulo (and what 
is expected from the build). If your coworker wants to take that on as well, 
she is more than welcome to as I haven't gotten to this yet. If she just wants 
to contribute changes to surefire (and maybe failsafe too?), I would rather we 
make a specific ticket so there's no worry of issue ownership.

> 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.
