Conventional optimization wisdom applies: find out where the bottleneck is, then put your effort there. In this case, I'd be surprised if ant is the bottleneck, rather than the compilation process. On the other hand, the bottleneck is, remarkably often, not where you'd think it was. Measurement is the only way to be sure.
