Mitigation for Samsung TextInput Hangs (#35967)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Summary:
Pull Request resolved: #35967

In #35936 we observed that the presence of AbsoluteSizeSpan may lead to hangs when using the Grammarly keyboard on Samsung.

This mitigation makes it so that we do not emit this span in any case where it is sufficient to rely on already set EditText textSize. In simple cases, tested on two devices, it causes typing into the TextInput to no longer hang.

This does not fully resolve the issue for TextInputs which meaningfully use layout-effecting spans (or at least font size), such as non-uniform text size within the input. We instead just try to reduce to minimum AbsoluteSizeSpan possible.

Testing the first commit was able to resolve hangs in some simpler inputs tested, by me and cortinico.
