Post Setup JDK 17 takes very long time on local runner

[MartynasObdeleven]

Description:
I have a build script that is run on each PR. It launches appium test suite, which takes approximately 4 minutes to complete,
but after that Post Setup JDK 17 takes more than 10 minutes which is strange, since we're using m1 mac studio.
Job looks like:

name: Appium Tests

on:
  push:
    branches:
      - "develop"
  pull_request:
    branches:
      - "main"
      - "develop"

jobs:
  appium-tests:
    runs-on: [self-hosted, macOS, ARM64]

    steps:
      - uses: actions/[email protected]

      - name: Set up JDK 17
        uses: actions/[email protected]
        with:
          java-version: '17'
          distribution: 'zulu'
          cache: gradle

      - name: Grant execute permission for gradlew
        run: chmod +x gradlew

      - name: Appium Tests (E2E)
        run: |
          chmod +x run_offline_appium_tests.sh
          ./run_offline_appium_tests.sh
        working-directory: scripts

Here's timeline:

Task version:
4.3.0

Platform:

• Ubuntu
• [x ] macOS
• Windows

Runner type:

• Hosted
• [ x] Self-hosted

Expected behavior:
Post Setup takes no more than minute.

Actual behavior:
Post Setup takes 10+ minutes.

v3 is also very slow with JDK 17. Is the cache size Ok?

I removed cache: gradle and the step was quickly completed
