Does anyone have speed comparisons between maven 2 and Ant?

Network latency is the biggest slow point.
At this point last year, Maven was faster assuming you had all your
dependencies. Recent tests say the releases have slowed a small
amount, which we'll look to address in future 2.x releases.
However, the difference in speed between Maven and Ant is always
dwarfed by the time it takes to compile source and run tests, so it
generally isn't a concern.

IMHO, ANT is a build tool, Maven is a build tool + build process.
So for ANT, you will need to write ton of code to make your own build
process.
just my 2c

Mick,
The benefits of using Maven come not by increasing the speed of work
(although eventually that will come too, but not because the tool is
faster), but rather by using a uniform project model shared by all
your projects and developers. The added value here is having all your
developers use the same build and development methodologies -
regardless of the project they work on. This is what really increases
productivity - the standardization of the development process and the
encouragement of proven best practices.
For more info, see http://maven.apache.org/what-is-maven.html which is
a good starting point for learning the real benefits of using Maven
over more low-level tools such as Ant.
Kind regards,
Arik Kfir.

I am writing up a general proposal about the benefits of Maven over Ant. And
I guess I have not seen heaps of weel written Ant scripts at my clients as I
always seem to think that Maven has been faster.
But I just need numbers to detail the actual benefit.

What for? It is quite obvious, that a well written Ant script is much
faster. If you use Maven, then you need to be convinced by other advantages.
