Startup is extremely slow on Android

See original GitHub issue

The Hello World application often takes a very, very long time to show any interface and run the loaded callback. The last time I ran it on the emulator (X86 emulator with HAX installed), it took 37 seconds from the time the app showed up with a blank white screen and menu bar. I’ve seen it take long enough to get a “not responding” warning. It’s also slow running on my actual device (Nexus 4).

I don’t have this problem with other Android apps I built in pure Java with Android Studio. Start-up of Hello World on the iOS emulator is instantaneous.

Is startup time for Android going to be improved in future releases? Currently I think it’s so slow that NativeScript is close to unusable on Android. Can this issue be re-opened?

I have the same problem I’m using Nativescript 2 + Angular + Typescript.
