It's causing a lot of headaches that it's trying to resolve latest version, it times out and just completes without failing. There's other times where it's actually failing:\r\n![image](https://github.com/actions/setup-java/assets/15101592/1bdf4eac-1c97-43e6-a534-a9a542925db6)\r\n\r\n\r\n**Task version:**\r\nv3\r\n\r\n**Platform:**\r\n- [X] Ubuntu\r\n- [ ] macOS\r\n- [ ] Windows\r\n\r\n**Runner type:**\r\n- [X] Hosted\r\n- [ ] Self-hosted\r\n\r\n**Repro steps:**  \r\nStart a matrix of 40-50 jobs all setting up java with:\r\n      - name: Set up JDK 17\r\n        uses: actions/setup-java@v3\r\n        with:\r\n          distribution: 'adopt'\r\n          java-version: '17'\r\n          cache: 'gradle'\r\nIt's guaranteed to happen to at least 5-6 times.\r\n\r\n**Expected behavior:**\r\nIt's expected to set up java 17 from cache if `check-latest: false` is specified and not fail on \"checking latest version\" when it still needs to download it.\r\n\r\n**Actual behavior:**\r\n`check-latest: false` is ignored as seen in screenshot #1, and when a very frequent timeout happens, the acton passes successfully.","author":{"url":"https://github.com/kalmanbencze","@type":"Person","name":"kalmanbencze"},"datePublished":"2023-07-28T12:10:41.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":9},"url":"https://github.com/519/setup-java/issues/519"}
