Hi all,

Renovate update jobs against the Polaris repository do not seem to finish
successfully since Jan 16. This is very likely caused by the recent Gradle
release last week.

Background: Renovate runs its jobs on small ephemeral instances. For a
Gradle wrapper update, Gradle's built-in mechanism is being used (aka
Renovate runs './gradlew wrapper' with the appropriate options) to create
the PR. Polaris configures a 2G heap via 'gradle.properties' - this size is
very much on the edge for the used Renovate instance types, which have 2G
memory and 1 (v)CPU.

The issue is already being tackled on the Renovate side [1] [2] by limiting
the heap for the Gradle version bumps.

If the fix does not go in in the near future, we can try to request larger
Renovate runner instances. [3].
