Summary:
public
New version of gradle has a better support for zipTree copy task. Since we have a few of those including one for boost library which used to take very long, after upgrading we no longer need 6a656a1.
Also seems like many improvements made to gradle since 2.2 made it perform better on incremental builds (around 10% improvement on my laptop).
Command used to upgrade gradle version:
gradle wrapper --gradle-version 2.9
Some of the plugins require updating as well since the previous versions were incompatible with gradle 2.9.

This is an early release and there are several things that are known
not to work if you're porting your iOS app to Android.
See the Known Issues guide on the website.
We will work with the community to reach platform parity with iOS.
