That was an app I was rewriting in C# (from the original ObjC). On my 4, the original would start up in .3 seconds, 1.2 on an 2g iPod. The MT version took 1-1.4 on the 4, 4.5+ on the 2g iPod. Not a dealbreaker by any means, but I had to keep an eye on it for the springboard cancellation stuff you mentioned. Think that kicks in at 20 seconds or so. Side note: some quick cut&paste action was all that was needed to bring the XIBs over - very handy. > >Oh yes. And a lot of the rest of it.

I miss that the most - followed closely by not having to spend much time in Instruments checking for leaks. Thought I was through with NSZombie for good. _______________________________________________ MonoTouch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/monotouch
