Andrew Grieve resolved CB-1579. ------------------------------- Resolution: Fixed The biggest win was just removing setTimeout(0) when dispatching plugin results. Results in a 3x gain in IFRAME_NAV and a 6x gain in XHR_NO_PAYLOAD *when* exec() is called from a plugin result callback. In the normal case (when exec() is called not from the context of a plugin result), the speedup is 66% for IFRAME_NAV and 33% for XHR_NO_PAYLOAD. Here are the benchmarks on my iPad 2: Base: Commit: https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=incubator-cordova-ios.git;a=commit;h=1a4156931a3697c1b47fbfe806f5ba69b1655aa1 IFRAME_NAV: 300 XHR_NO_PAYLOAD: 150 XHR_WITH_PAYLOAD: 190 IFRAME_NAV+async: 143 XHR_NO_PAYLOAD+async: 120 XHR_WITH_PAYLOAD+async: 110 Delete setTimeout in callback result: Commit: https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=incubator-cordova-ios.git;a=commit;h=c8ac3c2607e9b0dd7d00898e1276337eeaa10044 IFRAME_NAV: 800-900 XHR_NO_PAYLOAD: 830-880 XHR_WITH_PAYLOAD: 350 (not sure why this one was slow) IFRAME_NAV+async: 200-300 XHR_NO_PAYLOAD+async: 150 XHR_WITH_PAYLOAD+async: 200 Check for new exec() in callback.
