title: Can I shrink the 65k method limit in dex with Gradle?
body: <p>I'm developing a big application how has many libraries, I reached the 65k methods limit and I want to clean some libraries to shrink the methods size. Now I'm using proguard, but this take 5 minutes to compile! so, I need a method to clean before proguard  (like exclude with build.gradle or something like that) 
  I'm trying to use something like this :</p>
  
  <pre><code>compile ('com.google.android.gms:play-services:4.3.+'){
      exclude group: 'com.google.android.gms.drive'
      exclude group: 'com.google.android.gms.games'
  
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but it doesn't works , any idea?</p>
