Track execution time per task in gradle script?

Tags:

gradle

Just to elaborate on Peter Niederwieser's answer: We wanted to do the same thing, as well as a report timings at the end of the build, so slow steps are obvious (and appropriate parties feel a small but healthy bit of shame when they slow down the build!).

BUILD SUCCESSFUL

Total time: 1 mins 37.973 secs
Task timings:
    579ms  :myproject-foo:clean
  15184ms  :myproject-bar:clean
   2839ms  :myproject-bar:compileJava
  10157ms  :myproject-bar:jar
    456ms  :myproject-foo:compileJava
    391ms  :myproject-foo:libs
    101ms  :myproject-foo:jar
    316ms  :myproject-bar:compileTestJava
    364ms  :myproject-foo:compileTestJava
  53353ms  :myproject-foo:test
   2146ms  :myproject-bar:test
   8348ms  :www/node:npmInstall
    687ms  :www/node:npmTest

Something like the code below can be dropped into your top level build.gradle to report timings during execution, or after completion.

// Log timings per task.
class TimingsListener implements TaskExecutionListener, BuildListener {
    private Clock clock
    private timings = []

    @Override
    void beforeExecute(Task task) {
        clock = new org.gradle.util.Clock()
    }

    @Override
    void afterExecute(Task task, TaskState taskState) {
        def ms = clock.timeInMs
        timings.add([ms, task.path])
        task.project.logger.warn "${task.path} took ${ms}ms"
    }

    @Override
    void buildFinished(BuildResult result) {
        println "Task timings:"
        for (timing in timings) {
            if (timing[0] >= 50) {
                printf "%7sms  %s\n", timing
            }
        }
    }

    @Override
    void buildStarted(Gradle gradle) {}

    @Override
    void projectsEvaluated(Gradle gradle) {}

    @Override
    void projectsLoaded(Gradle gradle) {}

    @Override
    void settingsEvaluated(Settings settings) {}
}

gradle.addListener new TimingsListener()

This is a variation of jlevy's answer which has been modified to remove the usage of the publicly accessible gradle Clock class, which has been deprecated.

Something like the code below can be dropped into your top level build.gradle to report timings during execution, or after completion.

import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit
// Log timings per task.
class TimingsListener implements TaskExecutionListener, BuildListener {
    private long startTime
    private timings = []

    @Override
    void beforeExecute(Task task) {
        startTime = System.nanoTime()
    }

    @Override
    void afterExecute(Task task, TaskState taskState) {
        def ms = TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.convert(System.nanoTime() - startTime, TimeUnit.NANOSECONDS);
        timings.add([ms, task.path])
        task.project.logger.warn "${task.path} took ${ms}ms"
    }

    @Override
    void buildFinished(BuildResult result) {
        println "Task timings:"
        for (timing in timings) {
            if (timing[0] >= 50) {
                printf "%7sms  %s\n", timing
            }
        }
    }

    @Override
    void projectsEvaluated(Gradle gradle) {}

    @Override
    void projectsLoaded(Gradle gradle) {}

    @Override
    void settingsEvaluated(Settings settings) {}
}

gradle.addListener new TimingsListener()

The cleanest solution is to implement a TaskExecutionListener (I'm sure you can handle that part) and register it with gradle.taskGraph.addTaskExecutionListener.


I know this is an old question, but I've found a cool plugin that does task timing. It's like @jlevy's answer, but with some more options available: https://github.com/passy/build-time-tracker-plugin

This plugin by Pascal Hartig continuously logs your build times and provides CSV and bar chart summaries. The developer recommends it for monitoring your build times over time, versus --profile which gives you a snapshot for the current build.

This is how I'm currently using it:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }

    dependencies {
        classpath "net.rdrei.android.buildtimetracker:gradle-plugin:0.7.+"
    }
}

apply plugin: "build-time-tracker"

buildtimetracker {
    reporters {
        summary {
            ordered false
            threshold 50
            barstyle 'unicode'
        }
    }
}
