Description
Does anyone have stats on the performance of react-native-svg compared to displaying a png?
I saw an issue here where a screen with a bunch of svgs in a flat list was taking 1-2 seconds to load. Is that normal? Are people using react-native-svg to display lots of icons in their app or would using a large down-scaled PNG be better?
