Severe performance degradation after upgrading to Svg.Controls.Skia.Avalonia 11.3.6.1+

[one8loop]

Hello,

I’ve noticed a significant performance regression when upgrading from Svg.Controls.Skia.Avalonia 11.3.6 to 11.3.6.1 and 11.3.6.2.

My Avalonia application runs on a constrained device (CPU: NXP i.MX6 DualLite) and renders all UI icons and images from SVG graphics. The system does not use a window manager and the Application renders directly to fbdev (AppBuilder.StartLinuxFbDev).

After updating to 11.3.6.1 or later, the performance dropped drastically. For example, clicking a button with SVG graphics that navigates to a simple view (logo + text) now takes over 5 seconds to complete, whereas with version 11.3.6 and earlier it was nearly instantaneous (a few milliseconds).

Unfortunately, I can’t share the full project, but I have verified that the slowdown is directly related to upgrading this specific package beyond version 11.3.6.

Would you have any idea what could have changed internally between 11.3.6 and 11.3.6.1 that might explain such a performance drop?

Thanks a lot for your work on this project and for any insight you can provide!

Please provide minimal repro otherwise I can't help.

There have been a lot of changes 3.1.0...3.2.0
