My canary was the iOS 18 update on my iPhone SE 2nd generation.

In all my years of using iOS, i never had long pauses, but switching between safari and other apps i sometimes had pauses around 10 seconds. Maybe it is the SwiftUI change; i'm not sure.

I did upgrade to the SE v3 and haven't really seen many pauses. But i am not a power user by any means and was seeing the problem often, along with some other glitches.

Just to be clear: it wasn't like the applications were lagging, it was as if the entire OS was crawling.
