The android/cordova Meteor client for this standard example:
takes over 5 seconds to load on an android device.
Note that in this example there is almost no data to transfer between server-client, not loads of content or other big sources of data.
I am not seeing this slowness on iOS devices.
I have been through all the related searches here and StackOverflow related to slow Android/Meteor/Cordova (e.g., those speculating about launch-screen slowness etc). None of that works for me, but more importantly, non-flow router apps like iron-router examples or the ‘meteor create --example clock’, run fast on android with or without launch-screen and those other ‘fixes’
Can anyone confirm, deny, or better yet know what is going on with this issue with flow-router apps?
Cheers.
PS
I had to tweak example.html and example.js to get the subscriptions to work properly.
example.html diff:
<template name="post">
{{#if post}}
<div>Post: {{post.title}}</div>
{{else}}
<div>Home</div>
{{/if}}
</template>
example.js diff:
function createPostsSubscription(templateInstance) {
templateInstance.postsSubHandle = templateInstance.subscribe('posts', FlowRouter.getParam('slug'),
{
onReady: function () {
console.log("Posts subscription on post page is ready. There are "
+ Posts.find().fetch().length + " posts.");
},
onStop: function () {
console.log("Posts subscription on post page has been stopped.");
}
}
);
}
if (Meteor.isClient) {
Template.post.onCreated(function() {
createPostsSubscription(this);
var self = this;
self.autorun(function() {
self.subscribe('post', FlowRouter.getParam('slug'));
});
});
Template.post.helpers({
post: function() {
return Posts.findOne({ slug: FlowRouter.getParam('slug') });
}
});
}
