Looks like there's no slowdowns or unexpected bugs when AoT is disabled. Might be a binding issue or an indication of a deeper layout problem when AoT is on.
We'll need to run a profiler to see what the hot paths are during the slowdown.
Arlodotexe commentedon Oct 10, 2024
Looks like the hot paths are found on both the
MeasureOverrideandArrangeOverridecalls in WrapLayout, with the majority of time spent onABI.Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Controls.IVirtualizingLayoutContextMethods.GetOrCreateElementAt(WinRT.IObjectReference, int)in both methods:MeasureOverride:ArrangeOverride:This seems abnormal, possibly due to a change in CsWinRT?

Updating to the latest CsWinRT 2.1.5 has no effect, issue is still present.
