Summary
The analysis of the Gradle build performance for the baseline variant (varianta_baseline) and the Kotlin 2.4.21 variant (variantb_kotlin-2.4.21) reveals several key findings. The overall build time for variantb_kotlin-2.4.21 is longer by approximately 19.6 seconds (8.2% increase) compared to varianta_baseline. Specifically, the P50 and P90 build times show increases of 20.2 seconds (7.8%) and 20.6 seconds (7.5%), respectively. Configuration times also increased slightly in the Kotlin 2.4.21 variant by about 1.3 seconds (3.1%). Task execution times for several key tasks, such as KotlinCompile and DexMergingTask, have increased in the Kotlin 2.4.21 variant, contributing to the longer build times. Memory usage saw a slight increase in the Kotlin 2.4.21 variant, with a peak usage of 9.65 GB compared to 9.34 GB in the baseline.

2. Task Type Differences
- Top Time-Consuming Tasks:
"KotlinCompile": Mean time increased from 3.131s to 3.563s (13.8% increase)."DexMergingTask": Mean time increased from 6.484s to 6.837s (5.4% increase)."GlobalSyntheticsGeneratorTask": Mean time increased from 5.478s to 5.790s (5.7% increase).
3. Statistical Patterns
- Tasks with notable timing variations include
"KotlinCompile","DexMergingTask", and"GlobalSyntheticsGeneratorTask", all showing more than 5% increase in execution times in the Kotlin 2.4.21 variant.
4. CPU & Memory Usage Analysis
CPU Usage:
- All processes: Max CPU usage was 100% for both variants.
- Build process: Max CPU usage slightly decreased from 95.9% to 95.533%.
- Build child processes: Max CPU usage decreased from 94.4% to 93.767%.
Memory Usage:
- All processes: Max memory usage increased from 8.8 GB to 9.17 GB.
- Build processes: Max memory usage slightly decreased from 4.48 GB to 4.45 GB.
- Build child processes: Max memory usage increased from 3.2 GB to 3.62 GB.
5. Summary
The transition to Kotlin 2.4.21 in variantb_kotlin-2.4.21 has led to an increase in build and configuration times, with significant increases in execution times for several key tasks. Memory usage has also slightly increased, indicating a higher resource demand in the newer Kotlin version. These changes suggest a trade-off between adopting new Kotlin features and the impact on build performance and resource utilization.
