What are the top priorities for Kotlin Native (apart from iOS support)? WASM support has been mentioned as not being a top priority ( https://kotlinlang.slack.com/archives/CDFP59223/p1563365970024200?thread_ts=1563324949.014100&cid=CDFP59223 ).

Make it stable and fast enough?

That seems reasonable. Would also guess multithreaded coroutines.

I'm guessing some of the top priorities include: - Significantly improving compiler performance (eg much shorter compile times) - Reducing memory usage - Generating smaller binaries/libraries - Lower CPU usage - Solid C/Obj C/Swift interop

CPU performance has been a topic lately. I can’t speak for the team at all, obviously, but I’d guess compiler speed would be lower on the list for now. As much as we’d all like it, platform maturity and stability is probably first (I’d guess)
