Hi,
during build we use an interim image to generate some optimization information, e.g., the input for generate-jli-classes jlink plugin for the real build. Turns out jlinking the interim-image picks up the output from such training runs, which adds to the build time when we run incremental builds, and worse: it might mean we use stale information that could potentially make building the interim-image fail or do some really non-obvious things (an issue I ran into as I was experimenting with allowing the plugin to generate more kinds of LFs).
I suggest disabling the generate-jli-classes plugin when building the interim-image, avoiding such cycles:

A trivial one-liner fix, but as this is .gmk then I'm sure some would want to check I've used the proper mix of tabs and spaces... ;-)
Thanks!
