Skip validation and maven build on startup in eclipse

Technically I'm using Springsource Toolsuite, but I think this is a general eclipse question. My eclipse startup is now in the minutes, because on startup its running Maven Builder: FULL_BUILD and validation over all the open projects. I recently started working with a very large application, and going through the build and validation takes forever.

Is there a way to skip this at startup?

You can turn off automatic build under the Project top-level menu. Then you can explicitly control when to kick off a build. I would also ping m2eclipse guys on their forum about this issue. It sounds like there is a malfunction in their builder. It should not kick off a full build on every startup unless you workspace is significantly changed since the last Eclipse session.
