Can Timefold Solver be included in a (GraalVM) native application?

Yes. Timefold Solver has been tested with Quarkus and Spring Boot plugins to create native executables. Native executables typically have a fast startup time and reduced memory consumption. However, given the nature of the workloads running with the solver, these benefits are often overshadowed by slower solving speeds due to lack of JIT optimizations.
