Gradle Build Very Slow on Replit
Gradle builds take 2-3 minutes even for small changes. Build process is frustratingly slow.
Replit's shared resources and Gradle's large classpath cause slow compilation.
Common Causes
- Gradle daemon not running (restarts each build)
- Too many dependencies causing compilation
- No parallel compilation enabled
- Kotlin compilation slower than Java
- Tests run during build (should be separate)
How to Fix It
Set org.gradle.parallel=true and org.gradle.workers.max=4 in gradle.properties. Use --no-daemon for single runs, but enable daemon for repeated builds. Skip tests during build: ./gradlew build -x test. Use build cache: org.gradle.caching=true. Consider splitting into modules to parallelize.

Hey I'm Sage! Im a Boston area software engineer who grew up in South Florida. Ive worked at a ton of cool places like a telehealth kidney care startup that took part in a billion dollar merger (Cricket health/Interwell health), a boutique design agency where I got to work on a ton of exciting startups including a photography education app, a collegiate Esports league and more (Philosophie), a data analytics as a service startup in Cambridge (MA) as well as at Phillips and MIT Lincoln Lab where I designed and developed novel network security visualizations and analytics. I've been writing code and furiously devoted to using computers to make people’s lives easier for about 17 years. My degree is in making computers make pretty lights and sounds. Outside of work I love hip hop, the Celtics, professional wrestling, magic the gathering, photography, drumming, and guitars (both making and playing them)

I am a technologist and product builder dedicated to creating high-impact solutions at the intersection of AI and specialized markets. Currently, I am focused on PropScan (EstateGuard), an AI-driven SaaS platform tailored for the Japanese real estate industry, and exploring the potential of Archify.
As an INFJ-T, I approach development with a "systems-thinking" mindset—balancing technical precision with a deep understanding of user needs. I particularly enjoy the challenge of architecting Vertical AI SaaS and optimizing Small Language Models (SLMs) to solve specific, real-world business problems. Whether I'm in a CTO-level leadership role or hands-on with the code, I thrive on building tools that turn complex data into actionable value.
