basedir="/u/kumari/main/base/java/classes/common" and no includes may be
a tiny bit faster.  Not much, though.

I wouldn't know how, since it has to scan the filesystems once anyway.
Like I said there have been performance improvements in 1.8.0 but they
only apply if your directory tree contains many files.
