## The important bits
|
||||
|
||||
### `page_one.dart`
|
||||
|
||||
Compares running a large computation on the main isolate with running the same calculation
|
||||
on a second isolate. When the main isolate is used, Flutter is unable to render new frames, and
|
||||
the `SmoothAnimationWidget`'s animation freezes.
|
||||
### `page_two.dart`
|
||||
|
||||
Creates an isolate used to run an infinite loop that sums batches of 100M randomly generated
|
||||
numbers at a time. Users can start, terminate, pause, and resume the isolate, as well as modify
|
||||
how the calculation is performed.
|
||||
|
||||
### `page_three.dart`
|
||||
|
||||
Demonstrates how expensive it is to move large amounts of data between isolates and a
|
||||
better alternative to move data. This page creates an isolate that can add up a list of numbers
|
||||
and gives users three options for how to provide it with input:
|
||||
|
||||
* Send values normally using a List
|
||||
* Send the values using TransferableTypedData
|
||||
* Generate the values on the second isolate, so no copying is necessary
|
||||
|
||||
Users can then compare the performance of each approach using the displayed timestamps.
