[gildor]

I do.

Has build performance of Kotlin DSL improved?

No, it’s actually opposite, it’s slower on build script changes, usual build performance is mostly the same (so when all build scripts are compiled)

So in general Kotlin DSL is not about build speed, it’s about maintanance and development speed
