Can we have multiple instance of ads inside flat list ?

[paddy57]

I have a flat list, where I'm rendering three instance of ads on current, previous, and next items of a flat list.
Which is making my flatlist performance slow.
Is it ideal to have multiple instances of ads in list?

I 'm having the same problem now, I have been tried to follow tips about FlatList performance like setting windowSize, maxToRenderPerBatch and removeClippedSubViews props, but the performance in FlatList is still slow. Furthermore, I already tried to use all the solution mentioned in facebook/react-native#13413 but anything works effectively in this case. In fact, I noticed that decreasing the frequency that ads are shown increase the performance, but it is not an option for me. Any help?

you should try https://github.com/Flipkart/recyclerlistview
with this you can use multiple ads 100%

@cristea2017 +1 to that. In general you shouldn't use FlatList (for anything) if recyclerlistview is an option.

@paddy57 @Jean-Kenned There must be something you are doing that is causing that, I have tested the ads in a FlatList by loading more than 100 ads at once and I saw no frame drops. It was working perfectly, make sure you are on the latest version of this library when you test. Also you can try this in the example app inside this library. However I will test this again. @cristea2017 +1 to that too.

This has been fixed. Try the latest release, v0.3.6 @paddy57 @Jean-Kenned @cristea2017 @samuely4ng try the example in the project. Now i have added full example for all use cases.
