Description

Describe the bug
The spock quickstarter is mega slow (naked execution ~5mins)

  1. gradle version download ~7secs
  2. spock lib dependencies (2m11s pure load time)
  3. 3 times compile etc in gradle (one for each category of tests)
  4. allwaysPullImage set to true / default (depends on the node you run on, and your INF settings)

@metmajer - you also hit this in the sockshop demo

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Spock quickstarter's naked execution and measure the Gradle download, Spock dependency loading, repeated compilation, and image-pull steps described in the issue. Inspect the quickstarter's Gradle configuration and test-category entry points; done means the reported performance bottlenecks are addressed and execution time is measurably reduced.
