Butterknife: Is Butterknife aware of Gradle 3.4's incremental compilation?

[EduardDopler]

This is no real issue but having read Gradle's new feature which speeds up compilation by many times but only if annotations are implemented a special a way, I was wondering whether Butterknife allows Gradle doing those optimizations or whether it leads to recompiling every file where Butterknife annotations are present.

ButterKnife is a JSR 269 standard annotation processor and doesn't know anything about build systems. So your concern is how Gradle implements invoking the Java compiler and it's support as this library has no means to effect Gradle.
