One way in which Kotlin can be faster than Java is inline functions . With inline functions, code using higher-order functions such as filter or map can be compiled to simple loop-based bytecode that doesn’t create any objects or use any virtual calls (unlike Java code that uses the same type of functions).20 May 2017
