Description

Hi guys, since we have started using Maven 3.5.x (3.5.0, 3.5.2, 3.5.4) on our project, we're experiencing significant performance dropdown of our build process. It is mainly caused by maven-enforcer-plugin, which we use to enforce dependency rules.

I run the maven with -X debug option and based on that, I can say it spends all the time analyzing project dependencies.

See the attached logs.

The build on Maven 3.3.9 takes round about 30s, but on 3.5.x it is almost 7mins.
