You can get an idea by downloading the source zip file from
https://maven.apache.org/download.cgi and and counting something like Java
source files or kilobytes' worth of Java files, or LoCs...

FWIW, I see Gradle mentioned here and there in our issues. Using
Gradlebwould be a huge mistake IMO... I really don't like Gradle.

Maven has its quirks, sure, but if you implement a build using Maven's
philosophy of "configuration by exception", you end up with a nice easy to
maintain build.
