I spent some good two or three days debugging an issue on a React Native app running on, at the time, a newly released iPhone X. A new feature the team was developing started to lag only on iPhone X devices.

I found out that there was a memory issue after using the search feature, but I was not finding out why it was happening. After removing everything, I found out a TextInput property was causing it. Removing it fixed the issue and it didn't impact on the app usability at all.

I don't remember if I found out why that property was causing the issue, tho.
