Android maven plugin - takes a lot of time on every file save

I tried to mavenize my android project using maven-android-plugin, but every time I try to save any file, it takes a lot of time to build (build automatically) and other quick save, eclipse doesn't let me edit until all compilation completes. The only explicit goal I have indicated is to generate-sources (I have some AIDLs). But the disappointment of sitting and waiting for more than half a minute each time I save to compile to complete.

One project that actually generates the final apk only takes 1 min. 7 seconds (without running tests) to build from the command line, and there is no good way, given that I have a fairly small number of classes in this project.

Is there a way to speed up this process?

Since building with Maven consists of several steps, you can manipulate the build time with the right settings. A detailed description of the entire process can be found here:

Maven build process

With this, you can specifically determine the build process and significantly reduce build time (for example, by disabling tests).
