hi
is it possible to turn off all automated memory management for Kotlin/Native?
if yes, how? is there a convenient way to do it?

Kotlin as a language needs automated memory mgmt, what is your use case?

What about <https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin-native/blob/db8555b561d55a3d33510920eb435266bef717a1/runtime/src/main/kotlin/kotlin/native/internal/GC.kt> ?

* Depending on application needs it may select to suspend GC for certain phases of
 * its lifetime, and resume it later on, or just completely turn it off, if GC pauses
 * are less desirable than cyclical garbage leaks.

From the same file:

&gt; Konan relies upon reference counting for object management, however it could not collect cyclical garbage, so we perform periodic garbage collection.
