Kotlin enum class in Android performance

They are exactly the same thing, a Kotlin Enum is a Java JVM Enum.

It would appear so, yes.

I created this in Kotlin:

enum class Thingies {
    Red,
    Green,
    Blue
}

And decompiled it with javap -v, and here is the header:

public final class Thingies extends java.lang.Enum<Thingies>
minor version: 0
major version: 52
flags: ACC_PUBLIC, ACC_FINAL, ACC_SUPER, ACC_ENUM

Bottom line: they are identical, so you probably have to treat them the same way.
