Question:

Android vs. Objective-C iOS IMAP/MAIL Performance

Apr 10 '13 at 18:38

We are experiencing much greater download time when fetching emails (downloading headers for example) when using the Android library. However, the Objective-C libraries seem to perform email call functions much faster.

Same single calls are being used in both iterations. Any suggestions on improving email download speed (imap or pop) in the Android library?

Thanks.


Answer

There is only one underlying code base for all Chilkat classes. It is written in C++. It is this same code base that is used across all platforms, operating systems, programming languages, etc. Therefore, there shouldn't be any difference w.r.t. the Chilkat implementation between the different operating systems. Any differences you see must be related to the system, the environment, or the network environment..
