03/02/2021, 5:48 PMFollowing up on a previous question (https://kotlinlang.slack.com/archives/C0922A726/p1614689220294100) , every time I execute a Kotlin test in Intellij Idea, with or without code modifications, the IDE seems to rebuild the project the test lives in. The rebuild process takes over 30 seconds, even if the project is quite small (2.6GHZ MacBook pro, 32Gb ram). Any idea how to speed up the process?

However, I don't think it's a good idea (if you have a preprocessor/compiler plugin, that's not going to be picked up, ...). It's surprising that your build takes 30 seconds, it's almost instant for me (less than 3 seconds) for normal test builds.
