+1 for gradle, not enough people realise it's a very general build system (not just for java / android). The caching is indeed very good if you set it up properly. In the hands of a level 5 gradle wizard it can also be extended to do ANYTHING, with the usual caveat that you may experience regrets when your gradle wizard leaves.
