Root Cause

Gradle daemon ran out of memory during build.

generic

Workarounds

  1. 90% success Set reasonable heap: org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx4g in gradle.properties
  2. 85% success Enable Gradle configuration cache to reduce memory

Dead Ends

Common approaches that don't work:

  1. Kill daemon and retry without fixing heap 80% fail

    Same OOM on next build

  2. Set org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx100g 72% fail

    Wasteful, may exceed physical RAM
