2 gradle deamons947MB531MB, and 1 maven:106MB? along with IDEA:1.7GB

Completely depends on your project(s), modules and configurations.

Intellij can delegate bulld processes to gradle and maven so if you're configure that way, then sure. And if you run it from cli too, you'll see gradle daemons. They don't stop until requested to or a certain amount of inactivity occurs.

[Smallville7123]

is there any way to auto-kill them

[Nikky]

./gradlew --stop

[Mike]

They will ‘die’ after a certain amount of non-use. But what’s the concern? They get swapped out and consume negligible resources anyway, and greatly speeds up Gradle actions.

[Nikky]

depending on how awful the used gradle plugins are they might not release memory.. for me gradle daemons regulrarly pile up to haf the system memory and idea taking up the other half

[Nikky]

its not negligible

[Mike]

Obviously, then, YMMV applies.
