I recently noticed a weird hike on my GitHub Actions time, with no significant changes in the codebase, dependency upgrade, for example. One of my projects went from 14 min to 50 min with no reasonable explanation. Did GitHub changed something? #AndroidDev #KotlinMultiplatform #GitHub #CI

Using remember everywhere will not save you. If you don’t understand recomposition scopes and how the compiler tracks changes, remember becomes useless clutter. Compose performance starts with understanding how it works.

That small line saved GB of RAM on my poor laptop. If you're working on multiple #Gradle projects, strongly recommend changing the default timeout.

Had some new findings on this: - Increasing JVM settings has no effect on build time - The "link" task on KGP is the main issue. This task delegates the linking process to LLVM. - xcodebuild -create-xcframework seems to have a virtual impact. - Could not find any LLVM hack to boost CPU usage
