@olonho Is there anything different of the performance characteristics with the kotlin/native reference counting implementation than other languages like Swift or Rust?

yes, as we provide more service (most importantly a cycle collector) , we potentially may suffer some slowdowns. Although, after global escape analysis is turned on, we hope to have rather good performing ARC.

So you think performance will get significantly better than it is now?

we hope so, if we’ll be able to deploy proper escape analysis
