See exactly why your Gradle Build Cache missed: new Task Inputs visibility feature
Every Android developer has been there: yesterday's build finished in 2 minutes, but today's identical build takes 8 minutes. You check your code - nothing major changed. You check your environment - everything looks the same. So why the massive difference? Without visibility into what actually changed between builds, debugging performance issues becomes guesswork. You're left wondering: Which tasks didn't come from cache? What inputs changed? Why did this specific compilation task take so long?
