I'm currently trying to use gradle-android to build our project, but it 
takes 35 minutes to generate a debug apk, too slow to be useful, while buck 
takes only about 10 minutes.

According to gradle output, I found a lot of "prepareXXXXLibrary" task, 
each one represents a library dependency, and they extract files from 
library aar file to current project's build directory.

*But library aar file is packaged from buildDir/intermediates/bundles/, I 
am wondering why don't just reuse those files, instead of extracting from 
aar for every projet that depends on it. *Because our project are separated 
into 100 subprojects, and there are 10 subprojects that every other project 
depends on them, in this case these several subprojects will be extracted 
90 times, and take up 90x disk space. This is a huge waste of time and disk 
space, and in my opinion, slows down the build very much.

So is there any way to stop gradle from packaging and extracting library 
project, and just reuse the files that already there? Thanks in advance.
