Reaction context menu opening time

[Huddie]

For me I’d personally like it to open a bit quicker. It’s just slow enough that I’m not sure i hit the button each time I tap the smiley 😃

If it was the same speed as the manager button that would be good

Hmph, you're right it does feel clunky. It's the same code! Something is definitely off.

[Huddie]

I was gonna check the code before I made that statement but then I didn’t. 😊. Prob should have.

This has to be something with scroll views delaying content touches.

Classic scrollview causing issues again.

[BasThomas]

I shouldn’t have read this :(

Did some debugging to track time between a UIEvent being sent and the .touchUpInside action actually being executed. Found some interesting stack traces. The numbers at the beginning are a print of the time (in negative seconds) taken between UIApplication.sendEvent() and the button action handling in the cell.

Whenever the touch is slow, it's always around 0.35 seconds of delay.

The interesting bit in the fast-response trace is this:

__CFRUNLOOP_IS_CALLING_OUT_TO_A_SOURCE0_PERFORM_FUNCTION__

Some reading about the different runloop methods here:

CFRunLoopSources “Version 0” and “Version 1” are actually very different beasts, even if they have a common API. Version 0 Sources are simply an in-app messaging mechanism and must be handled manually by the application code. After signaling a Version 0 Source (with CFRunLoopSourceSignal()), the CFRunLoop must be awaken (with CFRunLoopWakeUp()) for the source to be handled.

__CFRUNLOOP_IS_CALLING_OUT_TO_AN_OBSERVER_CALLBACK_FUNCTION__

Observers are a bit special. The CFRunLoopObserver API lets you observe the behavior of CFRunLoop and be notified of its activity: when it processes events, when it goes to sleep, etc. It’s mostly useful for debugging, and you probably won’t need it in your app, but it’s there if you want to experiment with CFRunLoop’s features. [Update 2014-10-02: In fact, there are certain purposes where it will be useful: for example, CoreAnimation runs from an observer callout. It makes sense: by making sure all the UI code has run, it executes all the animations at once.]

Ah, found it. It's b/c there's already a UITapGestureRecognizer on IssueCommentBaseCell for the double-tap to like. Disabling that gesture fixes everything.
