EDIT : Seems like it was a temporary issue, and I could not reproduce it any more a couple hours later. Maybe something related to the Maven servers? Ignore the content of that repository.

I just started playing around with the (awesome) Korge Kotlin Game Engine.

One of the things that really disturbed is that when creating a new Hello World project, the compilation only would take almost 2 minutes before the game could run. After some investigations, it looks like all the time is spent in the KorgeGradlePlugin (but I am too novice to know why at the moment).

Check the result of the scan here.

Thanks to the great help from LeHaine, I could reduce this drastically. The numbers below are only for reference, but you can try it yourself.

Project	Command	Machine	Average time
Korge project hello world	`./gradlew runJvm`	MBP 2017	~1m50s
Korge project hello world	`./gradlew runJvm`	Win 10 i7 16Gb	~1m20s
Faster korge hello world	`./gradlew runJvm`	MBP 2017	~20s
Faster korge hello world	`./gradlew runJvm`	Win 10 i7 16Gb	~5s

Thanks again to LeHaine (and others on the Discord).

Note: I am pretty sure that this performance gain comes at a cost. If someone knows enough to tell me what it can be, I'm all ears. For the moment, I'll take the large performance gain to increase my feedback loop speed.
