Gradle performance improvement

gradle.properties

# This should be enabed by default - but just in case 
org.gradle.daemon=true

# Most projects consist of multiple subprojects, some of which are independent. 
# By default, Gradle runs only one task at a time - this removes this restriction.
org.gradle.parallel=true

# Enables incubating configuration-on-demand, 
# where Gradle will attempt to configure only necessary projects.
org.gradle.configureondemand=true

# This one you can play around with depending on your processor and tasks.
# Usually you don't need to configure it.

# Set Gradle daemon heap (I have 64 GB, so I can afford 10 GB)
# 1 GB Gradle metaspace (loaded classes, method names, reflection data)
# 3 GB for Kotlin Compiler daemon
# Configure this according to your own RAM

# By default, the build cache is not enabled. 
# With this setting Gradle will try to reuse outputs from previous builds for all builds
