Coregraphics causing big lag on iPad?

 UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(self.view.bounds.size);
        [currentStrokeImageView.image drawInRect:CGRectMake(0, 0, self.view.bounds.size.width, self.view.bounds.size.height)];
        CGContextSetLineCap(UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext(), kCGLineCapRound);
        CGContextSetBlendMode(UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext(), kCGBlendModeNormal);
        CGContextSetLineWidth(UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext(), dWidth);
    开发者_JS百科    CGContextSetRGBStrokeColor(UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext(), r, g, b, 1.0f);
        CGContextBeginPath(UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext());
        CGContextMoveToPoint(UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext(), pointA.x, pointA.y);
        CGContextAddLineToPoint(UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext(), pointB.x, pointB.y);
        CGContextStrokePath(UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext());
        currentStrokeImageView.image = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
        UIGraphicsEndImageContext();

For some reason this runs with absolutely no lag on the iphone/ipod but on the iPad their is a significant lag while drawing. The code I use is above, any suggestions to fix this?

The reason why this is so laggy is because you are doing it in the touchesMoved:withEvent:. This method can be called many, many times (obviously) while touch events are received. Because drawing to a graphics context can be a resource intensive operation, I would recommend not doing all the things you are doing there. I would, as much as possible, defer the rendering you are doing to the touchesBegin and touchesEnd methods. If that is not possible, perhaps you could only preform these operations once a certain delta has been reached in the movements, for example, every 2.0f points.
