The SBT build is derived from the Maven POM files, and so the same Maven profiles and variables

# Speeding up Compilation with Zinc
175+
176+
[Zinc](https://github.com/typesafehub/zinc) is a long-running server version of SBT's incremental
177+
compiler. When run locally as a background process, it speeds up builds of Scala-based projects
178+
like Spark. Developers who regularly recompile Spark will be most interested in Zinc. The project
179+
site gives instructions for building and running `zinc`; OS X users can install it using
180+
`brew install zinc`.
