Simon MacDonald commented on CB-1478:
-------------------------------------
Okay, using the old way of communicating between the native and JS layers I was
getting numbers in line with Daniel. After taking his test project and building
it into an .apk with the latest changes from Andrew/Joe, basically and edge
build I'm seeing:
100kb w/xhr: 54ms
100kb w/FileReader: 182ms
1M w/xhr: 96ms
1M w/FileReader: 790ms
So the new bridge helps but xhr is still faster. Also, if we think that as the
file size increases that using the FileReader will get exponentially worse then
switching to xhr seems like a real win.
Mind you let's see what other platforms report.
