Is there a way to disable the "Character Update ..." process in Android Studio?

I have a very large C ++ ndk gradle project that I am importing into Android Studio. Each time I import or change a build option, Android Studio will “refresh the characters” , which can take up to 20 minutes to build a release and around 5 minutes to build a debug. It also uses huge amounts of memory and processor (I needed to increase the default Java memory settings to 4 times by default for the "Update Symbols ..." phase).

Running "./gradlew installRelease" on the command line (without AS) does not seem to require this step. So, what does “Character Updating ...” actually do - and more importantly - is there a way to disable it.

Unfortunately, there is currently no way to directly disable this, although you can get around it by removing the headers from the Android Studio project view.
