Hi,

Just wondering if my iPhone application should be running slow when I put it through instruments? When I test my app using instruments, it goes extremely slow and is frustrating to use.

Thanks.

A: 

I faced similar situation. When instrument gathers data, the app seems to hang up. And this is natural.

Yes, this is normal as Instruments is constantly monitoring the app's process, which causes the app to run considerably slower than normal.

Yeah, I think that instruments affect your application being monitored. You can/should try in the real Iphone device to see the real performance

Yeah, I always run instruments when testing on the device. :)
