My Intellij-IDEA build my project too slow for Jrebel

Question

Last month, I was using IntelliJ IDEA Community which equipped with Jrebel.If I update one line of the html or Java file, and immediately press ctrl+F9, It will only take 2~3 sec.

Recently, I choose to use IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate instead, which also equipped with Jrebel.After same actions, It will take 8~11 sec. I believe it is too slow.

I have seen details of my IntelliJ's building. I believe it execute so many unnecessary steps，such as installing. All the information is as below:

Jebel and intellij ultimate are both commercial products. I would rather contact their support desks. And for your own sake, ensure where exactly time ist spend. Jebel writes log files that you can use to find out how long your hot swap really takes, and so on. — GhostCat, Feb 16 '21 at 10:46

IntelliJ recently introduced a feature to delegate build and run actions to the build tool which seems to be happening in your case. The feature is useful for overly complicated project setups that generate and process classes/resources using various plugins. In such cases IntelliJ's own build wouldn't know of these plugins and may not produce correct output. The downside is that a full maven build takes more time and unlike NetBeans, IntelliJ currently doesn't allow specifying goals (e.g. package) to run during a build and will run a full mvn install. Instead of invoking Build you may manually run a maven goal if building via maven is needed but want more control.
