03/19/2020, 4:15 AMWhy then "Starting Gradle..." takes long time on first run ?

03/19/2020, 7:38 AMAnother major reason Gradle is slow to startup is that it is a JVM application. All apps running on the JVM take a while to startup because the JVM has a lot of stuff to load, before the virtual machine can run a application. Subsequent runs of a application are quicker once the JVM has "warmed up".

After things made: "we have this/that bottleneck"
