This commit removes the setting of the fork options maximum memory size
in our build plugin and instead adds the value in the gradle.properties
file to be alongside the value set in jvmArgs.
This change is necessary when using parallel compilation as 512m is not
sufficient for parallel compilation on some machines.
We are still seeing rare failures with the Gradle heap set to 1792m,
especially on machines with high core count. Given it appears we are
close to the needed threshold, this commit bumps the heap one more time
to 2 GB.
After we stopped forking the compiler, some folks are running into out
of memory errors. This commit is a bump to the Gradle heap to workaround
these out of memory errors (until we can better understand their
source).
This commit adds a property that will prevent the Gradle daemon from
being used for builds (even if one is running). This is to avoid some
nasty issues (e.g., SIGBUS faults and other mmap diasters) that result
from class loaders not being closed properly.
Some dependencies must be specified in a couple places in the build.
e.g. randomized runner is specified both in buildSrc (for the gradle
wrapper plugin), as well as in the test-framework.
This change creates buildSrc/versions.properties which acts similar to
the set of shared version properties we used to have in the maven parent
pom.
