boopa in the case of Gmail,after certain amount of failed attempts it will lock the account and also will notify the owner of the account holder. Don't waste time and resources.

Man Page for Hydra:

Examples of Hydra syntax:

Took a few minutes on Google to find these resources and I felt they were well written. My experience with Hydra is quite minimal, but I've used it for some CTFs.

Ivanov_1 is exactly correct. Probably won't trigger a suspicious login because the chance of finding the correct password is incredibly small. Well, actually Hydra will report success almost immediately.

With gmail etc. you will just start getting false positives or be blocked completely. Hydra is awesome for random website logins where you aren't limited in attempts. For example webcamXP logins and stuff like that. I actually had some difficulty originally getting it to work properly. This is a site that I found particularly helpful and should answer your question:
