Xamarin App Slow When Built On Xamarin.Android 6.1.x

Our Xamarin app has much slower UI performance on Android when built using mdtool on a Mac vs. building using MSBuild on Windows 10. E.g., rendering when changing orientation takes several seconds in the former case, but is almost instantaneous in the latter. Does anyone have an explanation for that?

Note that it might not just be the UI performance that's improved; that's just what is most noticeable.

We have determined that the performance problem occurred when building on Xamarin.Android 6.1.x, but seems not to occur on X.A 6.0.x or X.A 7.0.1.6. Building on Windows/Mac indeed did not matter, as SushiHangover suggested.

Perhaps the Xamarin folks could explain why this might be so.
