I have upgraded my AndroidStudio today to latest stable version 2.3 (with gradle plugin 2.3.0 and gradle 3.3): now, I am not able to build my project which ran fine under AndroidStudio 2.2.3.
When I try, I am stuck at :app:transformJackWithJackForDebug as long as I don't kill my java platform process.
It is the same problem than this post I guess but on stable release.
Any help will be greatly appreciated :)
I killed many hours for the same issues after that i got link and its working fine at my end.
To use "Retrolambda" add few dependency.
dependency to your build.gradle file.
classpath 'me.tatarka:gradle-retrolambda:3.2.0'
Added dependency into app/build.gradle file.
apply plugin: 'me.tatarka.retrolambda'
Please clean your build and run. it will work fine.

all the best.
With Android Studio 3.0 (plugin 3.0) they are recommending to disable the Jack compiler as its been deprecated.
