Artifactory Plugin seems to ignore publishPom = false - gradle

Question

I have the following basic publishing code.
buildscript {
repositories {
maven {
url "${artifactory_contextUrl}/plugins-release"
credentials {
username = "${artifactory_user}"
password = "${artifactory_password}"
}
}
}
dependencies {
classpath "org.jfrog.buildinfo:build-info-extractor-gradle:4+"
}
}
allprojects {
apply plugin: "com.jfrog.artifactory"
apply plugin: 'maven'
apply plugin: 'maven-publish'
}
artifactory {
contextUrl = "${artifactory_contextUrl}"
publish {
repository {
repoKey = "${publish_repository_key}"
username = "${artifactory_user}"
password = "${artifactory_password}"
maven = true
}
}
resolve {
repository {
repoKey = "${resolve_repository_key}"
username = "${artifactory_user}"
password = "${artifactory_password}"
maven = true
}
}
clientConfig.timeout = 10
}
publishing {
publications {
mavenJava(MavenPublication) {
artifact 'test-1.1/abc-1.1.py'
version "1.5"
groupId "com.example"
artifactId "script"
}
}
}
artifactoryPublish {
publications ('mavenJava')
publishBuildInfo = false
publishArtifacts = false
publishPom = false
publishIvy = false
}
For a test I would like not to publish BuildInfo and Pom. Despite the fact all publishing is set to false invoking
gradle clean generatePomFileForMavenJavaPublication artifactoryPublish
and observing http traffic and console output confirms that all upload is still taking place.
Deploying artifact: https://artifactory/publish_repository_key/com/example/script/1.5/script-1.5.py
Deploying artifact: https://artifactory/publish_repository_key/com/example/script/1.5/script-1.5.pom
Error occurred for request PUT /publish_repository_key/com/example/script/1.5/script-1.5.pom.sha1;build.name=script;build.number=1512095807403 HTTP/1.1: Read timed out.
In addition last error completely puzzles me.
