Android Developers Backstage

This time, Romain, Tor, and Chet talk with Leland Richardson, George Mount, and Chuck Jazdzewski from the Jetpack Compose team about performance. The team has been looking at performance issues recently and discusses what they’ve found, what gotchas lie in wait for library developers, what tools and compilers can magically handle for you... and what they can’t. Tune in to learn about why we worry about autoboxing (and why you probably shouldn’t). Foreground: Romain, Tor, George, and Chuck Background (on the monitor): Chet, Leland, and Cody (audio engineer/producer), plus another view of the Studio with Romain, Tor, George and Chuck again, for your recursive pleasure.   Links: Jetpack Compose Android Studio Memory Profiler Macrobenchmark Baseline profiles  Kotlin bytecode decompilation   Romain: @romainguy and romainguy@androiddev.social Tor: tor.norbye@threads and tornorbye@androiddev.social Chet: @chethaase and chethaase@androiddev.social Leland: @intelligibabble George: @georgemount1 Chuck:
