Lombok slowing down build process in large project
build, ibm-rad, java, lombok, performance
Solution
Finally, there is an edge-build available, which speeds up Lombok very much! They did a lot of work speeding it up, it works fine for me now. The build time was nearly halved and I do not have to wait every time saving a file.
I also delomboked my project to get a comparison in speed and it is not very much difference between the delomboked code and the code with lombok-annotations.
You can download the edge-build here: http://projectlombok.org/download-edge.html
Problem
If I use Lombok in a project (about 15 separate projects - EJB, Web,...) Lombok slows down the build Process about 2-3 times. Is there any solution for this, or is that a disadvantage of Lombok? Just to see the size of the project, it's about 400 `@Getter`, 120 `@Data`, 250 `@Setter` and 100 `@EqualsAndHashCode`. Environment: IBM Rational Application Developer 8.0.4 with newest Version of Lombok (0.11.6) Any ideas to make it faster?
