furthermore, the i18n jar is created as just 'i18n', i would have
expected the full name of the project ('dependencies-i18n'), to
avoid
name collisions.

Hi,
I have focused on improving and understanding Gradle performance
the last days. I'm pretty happy with the results and the outlook.
In trunk we have already implemented caching the compiled build
script. On my machine this compiling the build script for the
Gradle build takes about 0.4 seconds. This compilation happens
so far for every primary task execution. So gradle clean dists
consumes 1 second for compilation. With caching this is now in
realm of the milliseconds.
What we also want to implement soon is caching the jar for the
build sources (for build sources see UG 15.1). That would make
using build sources even more attractive. There would be no
performance penalty involved any longer.
The next issue is about evaluating the compiled build script. It
was important for me to learn that Groovy not just has a startup
time but also does further initialization along the way. For
example evaluating the Gradle build script takes 0.8 seconds the
first time. If you do the same call another time it comes down
to 0.1 seconds. This 0.1 seconds is likely to even dramatically
improve due to the expected performance improvements of Groovy
in the future. For a single project build is does not matter any
way. But if you have a multi-project build with 20 projects it
sums up. But there are no Gradle bottlenecks to deal with. Ittay
has proposed to cache the whole project tree. I have come to the
conclusion that this is problematic:
- Technological problems: Right now Groovy does not allow to
serialize closures. This is supposed to change with 1.6 I think.
But our project objects can contain any other objects. They all
have to be serializable to allow caching. At least I can't see
any other means to cache the project tree except serialization.
- Caching the project tree is really freezing things. Even
changing properties would not be reflected any longer except you
manually declare the cache invalid.
- The performance benefits are not as high as originally
expected by myself.
I think improving Groovy's startup and initialization time is
the way to go. The Groovy team is not focusing on this right now
and it is not sure if there are means to achieve this. I think
the way to go for Gradle is what Ittay has proposed. Have a
background process that is fired up the first time Gradle is
called. After this you have a fully initialized Gradle/Groovy.
This would solve the startup time issue. Of course this would be
optional. This feature is not on the 0.3 list of features but
should make it into 1.0. We might use nailgun for this (Also
used by JRuby to improve startup time, although JRuby has a much
bigger startup time issue than Groovy).
All this is also good news for the IDE efforts on the way. If
someone change the build script it would take right now 0.5
seconds to recompile and regenerate the tasks tree for a big
build script like the Gradle build (if the system is
initialized, which is easy to achieve within an IDE). This is
kind of OK already I would say. We can expect it to improve
significantly in the future (due to Groovy's performance
improvements).
Even right now I don't think Gradle has a big performance issue.
For example for the Gradle build the compile and unit test times
makes 1 second startup time pretty irrelevant. On the other for
short tasks its nice to have a responsive system. And we reduce
the carbon foot print ;)
