Question

Hello all I m evaluating the transition into Pants for a middle size but constantly growing for our main product which is manly written on Scala Our builds are managed by SBT right now and hitting build times of 40 mins which is becoming unmanageable The upcoming JVM support in 2 9 although experimental looks very promising and we are willing to give it a go against our codebase as it goes evolving

Although 2 9 JVM support is still experimental we are committed to making it full featured robust and performant so having more real world use cases to test against will be great

we ve already created a branch for the evaluation of Pants 2 as we ve seen that you are making some regular releases and we are already hitting some implementation gaps bugs so this could be a good test bed for a middle size monorepo
