Can lifecycle events be observed without annotation processing in the new Android Lifecycle Architecture component?

Question

annotation processing/code generation adds significant overhead to build times and breaks incremental builds.

Can I (reactively, aka not by manually forwarding events) get a fine-grained callback for Lifecycle.Event.ON_STOP using the Android Lifecycle Architecure Component?

Or does this use reflection (slow) if I choose not to use annotation processing?

One solution is to implement the GenericLifecycleObserver interface and then capture the events in the onStateChanged method.
