Accelerate Android Studio/gradle Build

has been developed using Android studio for more than a year, as the project grows, relying on the increase of the library, the construction speed is more and more slow, now the slowest 6 minutes to build a release of the installation package, find information on the Internet, found that can be configured to speed up the pace, Here to share with you.

Turn on gradle separate daemon

Create the Gradle.properties file under the following directory:

• /home/<username>/.gradle/ (Linux)

• /users/<username>/.gradle/ (MAC)

• C:\users\<username>\.gradle (Windows)

and add in the file:

1	Org.gradle.daemon=true

Modifying the Gradle.properties file under the project can also be optimized:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22

At the same time, these parameters can also be configured in the previous user directory in the gradle.properties file, so it is not for a project to take effect, but for all projects to take effect.

The above configuration file is mainly to do, increase the size of Gradle running Java Virtual machine, let gradle at compile time use independent process, let Gradle can run parallel.

Modify the Android Studio configuration

In the configuration of Android Studio, turn on offline mode and modify the configuration. The actual configuration is the same as in the above section, where the configuration is only effective when the IDE is built and the command-line build does not take effect.
