Fair enough. It doesn't sell me on switching back to Maven. Ram is cheap enough. With 32GB Gradle can have a couple if it wants.

Most dev laptops are still running with 8GB.

2GB for a cache that isn't required by alternatives for the same result just feels bad.

And don't get me started into turning build scripts into full blown applications impossible to decipher what is going on without some kind of debugging process.
