Research direction

Start at the kompile entry point and establish a baseline for compilation time and memory behavior. The issue does not name files or tests, so first identify where kompile is implemented and how compilation is scheduled; done would require a demonstrated performance improvement or supported concurrent compilation path.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

enhancement incremental-compilation kompile

kompile is quite slow, and it doesn’t seem to speed up even increased memory using -Xmx. And I found no way for concurrent kompilation. This has made debugging a bug very time-consuming.
