Answer from AI
When experiencing delays or lag when scrolling a table in iOS, the following parameters should be analyzed:
- Cell rendering time: how quickly cells are created and configured. Slow configuration, for example due to complex calculations or image loading, can slow down scrolling.
- Asynchronous data and image loading: if images or data are loaded synchronously on the main thread, it causes delays.
- Cell reuse (reuseIdentifier): proper use of reusable cells reduces memory load and speeds up rendering.
- Number and complexity of Auto Layout constraints: overly complex or excessive constraints can slow down layout calculations.
- Volume of data loaded into memory at once: loading too much data at once can cause lag.
- Use of heavy operations in
cellForRowAtorwillDisplayCellmethods: heavy operations should be performed in advance or asynchronously.
For diagnostics, tools like Instruments (Time Profiler, Core Animation) can be used to identify bottlenecks.
