Was so hopeful for the new 2019.3 to fix the performance issues I have in Kotlin files. Nope. Still takes 20 seconds to reformat a simple Kotlin file.
👏
The performance tickets I have opened and submitted including CPU snapshots are still unresolved.

Definitely, I don’t know how behind Android Studio is in terms of performance improvements (probably not much since Kotlin plugin does most of the work I guess), but reformatting and editing some files (with lots of coroutines & generics) is ridiculously slow. Sometimes makes me regret we don’t write Java anymore, which was blazing fast as far as I remember

Agreed. I'm tempted to just go back to a more basic editor, I loose more time with all of that (and other bugs) than I would spend refactoring by hand.

I'm working on a large codebase with a mixture of Java and Kotlin. The performance difference between editing Java vs Kotlin is very noticeable 😞
