Extremely slow compilation (9min) for Kotlin/Wasm project on CI (10-core, 16GB, Kotlin 2.1.21)

When compiling a Kotlin WebAssembly (Wasm) project on our CI machine, one task takes unusually long (~9 minutes). Here are the specs:
• CI Machine: 10 CPU cores, 16GB RAM
• Kotlin Version: 2.1.21
• nodeVersion = "20.9.0"
• yarnVersion = "1.22.21"
The slowdown seems disproportionate to the hardware. Has anyone encountered similar performance issues with Kotlin/Wasm builds?

It's probably not really slow Kotlin/Wasm compilation but the optimization with an external tool (binaryen). And yes, it takes a lot of time for larger projects.

You should ask K/Wasm related questions on #CDFP59223 channel
