roScreen based app performance drop

I have three applications that all of the sudden run like about 1/4 as fast after rebuilding them this week.

Has anyone else ran into a sudden performance drop very strange since in at least two of the cases

no code was changed but it didn't slow down until a rebuild from VS code???

    Your test device may have updated to Roku OS 13.0 which has a major internal change in how roScreen applications are drawn compared to 12.5.

      Thank you,

      Both of my test devices have updated so that might explain it.

      Although it didn't seem to materialize until I rebuilt the app as well.

      I would have thought it would affect the previously installed version.

      Was it intentionally or necessarily made to run slower?
