Identify build performance bottlenecks by capturing a build scan to separate configuration vs execution phase issues. This allows you to apply targeted optimizations and validate improvements with follow-up builds.

Reduce Android CI/CD build times by measuring baselines, identifying bottlenecks between configuration and execution, and applying one optimization per iteration to validate improvements using build scans.

The best way to diagnose Gradle bottlenecks is capturing a build scan to identify whether the performance issue is in the configuration or execution phase, then applying a targeted optimization and validating the result.

Build scans are needed to validate improvements and identify bottlenecks accurately across Android projects. You measure a baseline, apply an optimization, and capture a follow-up build scan to confirm the reduced build times.

You can apply build cache and configuration cache optimizations to incremental builds. Apply one optimization per iteration, then run a follow-up build to validate the performance improvements against your baseline.
