Ø  I’ve built my app with 19.49.514.4 version of Crosswalk - this is the one 
closest to 17.46.460.1 that is compiling with newest plugin version and I can 
observe some animation boost for translate3d so you were right about it.

It would be useful to know how the performance has degraded between 19 and 23. 
Can you share any more details on the application, possibly in a Jira issue?


Ø  On the other hand, I can imagine that version with some features removed can 
load faster, occupy less memory and do some things faster than a full-blown 
release. I guess that most Cordova/Ionic projects would use Lite version.

You can see the memory occupation we measured here (numbers are a bit outdated 
for mainline Crosswalk which is now even bigger): 
https://crosswalk-project.org/documentation/crosswalk_lite.html.


Ø  So I think that my feature request is still valid. Not sure what you think 
about it, though.

Making LZMA compression optional makes sense I think, though I can’t say if and 
when it would be available.

Thanks for reply Francesco.

This is entirely possible. I checked the Crosswalk versions used by Lite and 
standard distribution and they are far from each other: 
xwalk_core_library_canary 17.46.460.1 vs walk_core_library 22.52.561.4. I 
didn’t expect that such a difference is possible.

That is odd, and is more likely related to the Crosswalk version on which Lite 
is based, it shouldn’t have anything to do with the changes done in Lite (which 
is all about removing features to shrink size).

Subject: [Crosswalk-dev] Feature idea: integrating 
cordova-plugin-crosswalk-webview with cordova-plugin-splashcreen

Hey,

I am integrating Crosswalk Lite with Cordova application using 
cordova-plugin-crosswalk-webview plugin and want to get rid of “Decompressing 
the Crosswalk Project Service…” dialogue on the first application start. 
Browsing various threads I see it’s a recurring pain point for many projects. 
What would you say about altering cordova-plugin-crosswalk-webview to show 
splash screen (if generated) instead? I guess that most cordova projects use 
cordova-plugin-splashscreen that generates splashcreen for all devices in “res” 
 directory. This could be configured with some flag in config.xml if needed.

I am not sure if this dialogue is hardcoded in Crosswalk itself or in the 
plugin and I am not sure if there is a way to alter this behaviour at all. The 
only reference I found is 
https://github.com/crosswalk-project/crosswalk/blob/e3259b966dcedd18dc456b8cc97cd1a52aad58ea/runtime/android/core/strings/xwalk_app_strings.grd
and
https://crosswalk-project.org/jira/browse/XWALK-3475

Alternatively, is there any way to skip LZMA compression for Lite so that this 
dialogue does not show up? I am more interested in having lite version of 
Crosswalk in my project than concerned about apk size. I find Lite version 
faster on many devices, especially with translate3d transformations than 
mainstream Crosswalk.

Thanks,
Piotr
