 The benchmarks were run on an iPhone 14 Pro. Note that active Session Replay recording can introduce slow frames on older lower-end iOS devices (for example iPhone 8).

+### Enable Experimental View Renderer
+
+<Alert>
+  In case you are noticing issues with the experimental view renderer, please
+  report the issue on [GitHub](https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-cocoa).
+</Alert>
+
+Starting with v8.47.0 you can enable the up-to-5x-faster new view renderer, reducing the impact of Session Replay on the main thread and potential frame drops.
+
+While we do recommend the new view renderer, it's currently considered an experimental feature to further evaluate its stability.
+After the evaluation phase we are going to enable it by default.
+
+```swift
+SentrySDK.start(configureOptions: { options in
+  options.sessionReplay.enableExperimentalViewRenderer = true
+})
+```
