>Play's refresh-recompile trigger means it is not meaningfully less productive than PHP
Except with PHP you hit refresh and it is done. With play you wait 10 seconds and it is done. There is a huge difference.

eh? With incremental builds you should be seeing far more 1 second recompilations than 10 second recompilations.
If you're getting 10 second recompiles, the following help:
1) sub projects, it's an absolute must for non-trivial apps
2) use a 3rd party build system (say, GruntJS) for assets
Also, be sure to ;clean;compile prior to starting an incremental build with ~run (and of course, do this from a play> prompt and not bash, you want a warm JVM)
