We have 32 GWT permutations the moment, we used to have only 4... Some last
changes caused this increase... We need to be more cautious about updating
GWT client code.
I tried
ant clean dist-server compile-gwt test
It took me about 16 minutes. If you tried the default target which also
includes running tests then it could take about 6 minutes more.
So max 21 minutes on 2-core laptop. This is for the full prod build, if you
run the server from compiled source with dev GWT setting(only 2
permutations) then it takes only a few minutes, or even less.

Basically running wave is simple like:

git clone git://git.apache.org/wave.git wave
cd wave
cp server.config.example server.config
ant dist-server compile-gwt run-server
