addImage takes really long time on iOS 8 running in PhoneGap

[hanthomas]

I am calling addImage by passing a Canvas object into it. The image is only 50 kb, so I would expect it to be near instantaneous. On iOS 8 Safari browser it works very fast (< 10 seconds). But, when I wrap the app in PhoneGap, the same code take 90 seconds. By comparison, the same PhoneGap app running under Android takes about 10 - 15 seconds to do the same operation. Can anything be done to make addImage work just as fast on iOS + PhoneGap?
