I realised that I have a lot of gradle processes that are left around even after exiting intellij. And they use a lot of memory. Is there a way to tell gradle to exit itself after a give time?

you mean gradle daemons?

[Dariusz Kuc]

you can check whats running with gradle --status

[Dariusz Kuc]

and stop them using gradle --stop

[Dariusz Kuc]

unsure if there is an automated way to stop them

[Dariusz Kuc]

*you could also disable daemons but it might slow down your build

yes

[bjonnh]

I'll remember to run gradle --stop

[bjonnh]

I had two of them with two version and they were taking a lot of RAM

[bjonnh]

I did kill SIGTERM them before, that should be ok too
