Description

By default Jansi extracts the native, shared library to temp which results in unnecessary file I/O and a huge amount of temp files when Maven is run very often. One can avoid that by adding -Dlibrary.jansi.path=${MAVEN_HOME}/lib/ext to the start script. The user has to copy the libjansi.so or jansi.dll once and will avoid the overhead.
