nativescript application runs slow and freezes when navigating on android devices but runs excellent on ios

I have exhausted any suggestions available online. I have tried setting markingMode in the package.json

"android": {
    "markingMode": "none"
}

I have tried several methods of loading the viewModels. I have tried saving to physical files and reading from them. I have tried loading the json data fore each view into the appSettings.

I have tried uninstalling sass plugin sidedrawer plugin. I have updated all the plugins including the core components.

Here are the plugins/versions

  nativescript-appversion          │ ^1.4.1  │ │
  nativescript-iqkeyboardmanager   │ ^1.4.0  │ │
  nativescript-keyboard-toolbar    │ ^1.0.4  │ │
  nativescript-local-notifications │ ^3.1.0  │ │
  nativescript-orientation         │ ^2.2.1  │ │ 
  nativescript-pager               │ ^9.3.14 │ │ 
  nativescript-plugin-firebase     │ ^8.0.0  │ │
  nativescript-pulltorefresh       │ ^2.2.0  │ │
  nativescript-social-share        │ ^1.5.1  │ │ 
  nativescript-sound               │ ^1.0.4  │ │ 
  nativescript-ui-sidedrawer       │ ^6.0.0  │ │
  nativescript-windowed-modal      │ ^5.0.6  │ │ 
  rxjs                             │ ^6.3.3  │ │ 
  tns-core-modules                 │ ^5.2.2

The application should be able to navigate different views without freezing or slowing down.

I was facing exact the same issue. Use the configuration below on /src/package.json, not in the main package.json.

{
  "main": "main.js",
  "android": {
    "v8Flags": "--expose_gc",
    "markingMode": "none"
  }
}
