I see the following artifacts being generated as part of the Suite build process:

opengeosuite-a.b.c-win.zip
opengeosuite-a.b.c-mac.zip
opengeosuite-a.b.c-doc.zip
opengeosuite-a.b.c-doc.tar.gz
opengeosuite-a.b.c-ext.zip
opengeosuite-a.b.c-ext.tar.gz
opengeosuite-a.b.c-readme.zip
opengeosuite-a.b.c-readme.tar.gz
opengeosuite-a.b.c-war-geoserver.zip
opengeosuite-a.b.c-war-geoserver.tar.gz
opengeosuite-a.b.c-war-geoexplorer.zip
opengeosuite-a.b.c-war-geoexplorer.tar.gz
opengeosuite-a.b.c-war-geoeditor.zip
opengeosuite-a.b.c-war-geoeditor.tar.gz
opengeosuite-a.b.c-war-geowebcache.zip
opengeosuite-a.b.c-war-geowebcache.tar.gz
opengeosuite-a.b.c-war-geoserver-jboss.zip
opengeosuite-a.b.c-war-geoserver-jboss.tar.gz
opengeosuite-a.b.c-war.zip
opengeosuite-a.b.c-war.tar.gz
opengeosuite-a.b.c-control-flow.zip
opengeosuite-a.b.c-control-flow.tar.gz
opengeosuite-a.b.c-dashboard-win32.zip
opengeosuite-a.b.c-dashboard-lin32.zip
opengeosuite-a.b.c-dashboard-lin64.zip
opengeosuite-a.b.c-dashboard-osx.zip

I feel like we can disable/not build 50% of these artifacts:

opengeosuite-a.b.c-doc.tar.gz
opengeosuite-a.b.c-ext.tar.gz
opengeosuite-a.b.c-readme.tar.gz
opengeosuite-a.b.c-war-geoserver.tar.gz
opengeosuite-a.b.c-war-geoexplorer.tar.gz
opengeosuite-a.b.c-war-geoeditor.tar.gz
opengeosuite-a.b.c-war-geowebcache.tar.gz
opengeosuite-a.b.c-war-geoserver-jboss.zip
opengeosuite-a.b.c-war-geoserver-jboss.tar.gz
opengeosuite-a.b.c-war.tar.gz
opengeosuite-a.b.c-control-flow.tar.gz
opengeosuite-a.b.c-dashboard-lin32.zip
opengeosuite-a.b.c-dashboard-lin64.zip

This will hopefully help speed up our build process by a non-trivial amount.
