very poor performance on iOS :(

[Niklas Therning]

Please try running with perfLogger and also Instruments. As I've pointed
out before RoboVM is in early stages of development. It doesn't do release
builds yet. Virtually nothing has been done yet to optimize things for
speed. So my guess is that you will find that a lot of time is spent in
RoboVM code. Also, AFAIU the Oracle guys have run this on iOS internally
and have seen decent performance (can someone confirm?). That would also
suggest that RoboVM is the problem at the moment.
