It's iOS' performance problem because Chrome is forced to use a UIWebView instead of the Nitro engine: https://developer.chrome.com/multidevice/ios/overview https://developer.chrome.com/multidevice/ios/overview.
- SoftwareMaven 12y agoIt would be wonderful if Apple virtualized the UIWebView process so it could safely use nitro. Not only would it help Chrome (not that I bet Apple cares :), but also a huge number of applications. And, if apps were fully virtualized, it could possibly open up new, interesting possibilities that have been heretofore deemed unsafe.
- coldtea 12y agoBut virtualized would be slower for everybody, right?
- joshschreuder 12y agoIt does indeed help a large number of apps (though more and more are going full native since the Facebook app drama). Jailbreakers have had this for a while now with Nitrous, a tweak which unlocks the Nitro engine to all apps.
