So, because of performance issues I've tried profiling my app and `Compose:applyChanges` takes over 500ms - what do I do? :smile:
I have a fairly complicated layout with a lot of Crossfades and stuff changing. What are the things I should be primarily looking for? Stability of parameters, recomposition counts, heavy calculation inside composables (filtering, mapping lists) and things like that? I am not looking for any specifics, just generally some steps which would you go through when encountering this sort of problem.

applyChanges usually refers to heavy calculations in effects / remember observers
it is hard to predict exactly, but try to look for `DisposableEffect` or similar blocks that are doing too much work

It can also refer to movement of `LayoutNode` inside movable content, if crossfade uses it. If that's the case, consider wrapping the content with `BoxWithConstraints`, which contains subcomposition. It is a bit hacky way of fixing it, but can generally help :slightly_smiling_face:

Thanks a lot for the tips. I really appreciate it
