Is it normal that `collectAsState` has some small delay to it before views are populated even if the underlying `Flow` is cached using `stateIn`? It's quite noticeable in the UI.

Yes but it depends on what you mean. Are you collecting a `StateFlow` or some other `Flow` ?

Is this delay significant or is it just a small "stutter" in the UI?

<@UJNF1R1NG> did you try a release build?

I've noticed the same. But I always chalked it up to it being debug

&gt; `stateIn` makes it a StateFlow
Just making sure you aren't upcasting it to a `Flow` at any point and are calling the `collectAsState` function that takes no params.

The stutter shouldn't be there but :shrug::skin-tone-3: , would need to see code at this point.

I had similar experience with paging extensions for collecting as State as well. i try to pass State directly.
