How quick is webdev with Lift?

How quick is webdev with Lift? Is your Lift dev-cycle of webapp is the
same as with classic Java? I mean these steps:

1) code
2) compile
3) deploy
4) find error
...
n-2) re-compile
n-1) re-deploy
...

Such as Scala is compilable lang, every change made into the snippets
requires "re-compile" and "re-deploy". This slows down development.

Are you using JRebel (formerly JavaRebel)? I have used this lib for
Java projects and it worked fine.

Are there any other tips to speed up webdev on JVM-Scala-Lift compared
to JVM-Java-XXX?

I use JRebel and SBT (http://code.google.com/p/simple-build-tool/) and
very rarely have to restart my server when doing development.  It's a
very quick dev-cycle.  No big tips really.  I save the code and reload
the page and see the results of my work.

Even without JRebel the cycle isn't that bad, especially if you don't
need to alter Snippets.  Often I'm only tweaking the xhtml, in which
case I don't even have to restart the server.
