Ionic 2 android performance

I've been working with Ionic 2 since it's beta versions in July, and I was really excited when the final version came.

But I believe there is a great difference in performance between the android and the ios deployments.

As a test, I used the conference app, the demonstration application from ionic team.

There is a video I have linked below, where one can see the Conference app (as is today) deployed following the instructions (--prod -- release).

I think it cannot go unnoticed the fact that there is lag, a slight delay when using the bottom tabs (especially the speakers one ~0:17).

Has anyone else noticed difference regarding the performance between ios and Android?

Has anyone released an ionic 2 android version of his (or the Conference) app where such delays are not present?

Or is its something we should bear with?

Globally, iOS performances are much better on Hybrid apps. Yet it tends to become smoother on Android, with lastest webviews. Regarding this specific case: it seems that the conference app uses ionViewDidLoad to get/initialize the list of speakers. You may try to use ionViewDidEnter instead. It should result in a faster page transition, but a delayed initialization of the layout. See more about NavController lifecycle events.
