I don’t know of any restrictions, but there are ways to turn off the remote cache in a benchmark scenario

// settings.gradle
buildCache {
  // read from a system property
  remote.enabled = providers.systemProperty("cache.remote.enabled").getOrElse("true").toBoolean()
}

// Scenario file
no-remote-cache {
  // set the property for the build to read
  system-properties = {
    "cache.remote.enabled" = "false"
  }
  // or simply disable remote and local
  gradle-args = ["--no-build-cache"]
}
