Hi. When I’m building my project using cocoapods, it takes a really long time on my first build. Specifically the `podBuild&lt;Library&gt;Iphoneos`  and ``podBuild&lt;Library&gt;Iphonesimulator`  tasks. They run up to 20 mins when I invalidate caches on my IDE… Does anyone have an idea on why this is happening? Thanks!

I’ve seen similar performance on a coworker’s machine, it takes 20 minutes to build all the versions of our KMM app. It takes about 10 minutes on my machine that’s newer / higher specs.

I don’t know why it takes so long, but subsequent builds are usually faster.

I’ve found it helpful to only build the desired product by customizing the gradle commands I’m executing. (e.g. only build androidDebug, or debug on X64)

If anyone was wondering, I think it was because the pods of `FirebaseFirestore` depended on more libraries. The pods for `FirebaseMessaging` and `FirebaseStorage` only take up to a minute on the first run.  These also only happen on the first project sync. After that, it’s good to go. It’s just a pain to wait for an hour if I have some changes that would require it to do the process all over again
