Reporter: Dejan Stojadinović
*Problem description:*
# it started after attempted version upgrade from *RAFT 0.15 to 0.17* (via
Gradle Rat plugin version upgrade here:
[https://github.com/apache/kafka/pull/23424#issuecomment-5633077550):] RAT task
execution time was increased exponentially (25 times)
# plugin developer Paul Merlin (aka [~eskatos]) was extra responsive:
[https://github.com/eskatos/creadur-rat-gradle/issues/37#issuecomment-5630452783]
# RAT 0.18 task execution time is better comparing to 0.17 (but nowhere near
to 0.15)
(on) Note: I can provide Gradle Develocity build results scans.
