I have been performing tests with porting code between native Java apps w/ Eclipse + ADT to VS2010 + Monodroid.
My initial findings are as follows: Even for a simple/contrived application with a minimal UI/logic, start-up times for a Mono app are in the 5-10 second range. This improves on subsequent launches, possibly due to caching, etc, but it is still problematic. A native Java app, by comparison, launches instantly. For a simple UI, a native Java app is immediately responsive after launch. A Mono app, by comparison, is noticeably sluggish; I have witnessed this being to the degree of not having the first 3-4 button presses respond at all. While my findings are not exactly quantitative or conclusive, it raises immediate viability concerns. Along with other concerns regarding various issues of general IDE/debugging performance and issues, are there any plans to dramatically improve in-app performance? Thanks, Stephen
