Hi
My application is growing and now my buildtime goes around 5 minutes. Is this normal? How can I test if there is a bug that slows down the build process
I use a laptop with I7 processor, 16GB Ram, and SSD HDD
Thank you
George
Hi,
Is it clean build time or just repeatable build? Do you use web-toolkit module in the project?
Hi Yuriy
It’s repeatable build, I do not use web-toolkit module
Thank you
I’d recommend that you profile your build time with Gradle:
gradlew assemble --profile
It will generate high-level HTML file with duration for each build step plus dependency resolution time and start-up.
Usually, for repeatable builds you will see:
Description Duration
Total Build Time 3.307s
Startup 1.059s
Settings and BuildSrc 0.006s
Loading Projects 0.012s
Configuring Projects 0.463s
Task Execution 1.193s
Please note, that there is no need to run clean for repeatable builds. Gradle tracks changes automatically unlike Maven.
Thank you
with profiling it is actually faster…
mine looks like this:

It could be network problem with dependency resolution. Set off-line in Settings and try again. Or from CLI:
gradlew deploy --profile --offline
Did you clean sources before build?
Because compileJava is not marked as UP-TO-DATE
:app-core:compileJava
Usually, deploy just takes 10 sec if project is compiled:
Task Duration Result
:refapp-core 4.217s (total)
:refapp-core:deploy 3.881s
:refapp-core:compileJava 0.195s UP-TO-DATE
One more option to figure out what is wrong: Redirecting to https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/performance.html
gradlew deploy --scan
Please note that it will publish your results to the Gradle Inc cloud.
I’ve checked our biggest projects and they have approximately 5 minutes clean build. And only 20-30 seconds for repeatable redeploy even on laptop without SSD and i5 processor.
It could be problem with Gradle or Network, I believe that investigation and profiling will show something.
Also, I’d recommend checking options of your anti-virus if you use it and add ~/.gradle directory to exceptions
Hi
I have cleaned my build.gradle … there were some broken repositories … I cleaned and now it compiles in 7s.
Thank you!
