Research direction

Start with the attached appium2.log and reproduce the reported slowdown for Android UIAutomator2 after upgrading Selenium 4 and Appium-Python-Client 2, comparing it with XCUITest and the earlier environment. No source file or test is named, so first locate the Android execution path and an existing performance or integration test. Done means the regression is isolated and a verified correction or documented upstream cause is established.
