Performance issue

Need some guidance on the performance issue that I am facing to run the below game on IOS device.

1) I am rotating two sprites in opposite directions. Both the sprites have rotate behavior. created 16 collider sprites to pin to main two rotating sprites.

2) Have a sprite with bullet behavior. Need to pass through the main sprites.

The game works great on PC while testing. But on mobile device it has a lag. The lag becomes more prominent after I have integrated backend components like iAd, Admob etc. I have built for IOS using Intel XDK and also added phonegap WKWEBVIEW plugin which has enhanced the performance of the play a bit.

Is there any other ideas which I should try out?

thanks,

I have done some more work on the performance issue. Whenever I run a banner ad which has animation ( something is moving) like in iAD, the lag happens. So I moved to text based banner ad from Admob and when it improved a bit. However even on admob, if there are animation based banner it impacts. I may have to completely drop it.

If I were facing an issue like this, I would try profiling, which helps figure out what parts of the program are taking the most time. I'm not all that familiar with IOS, but Android devices have a debug mode that lets you run diagnostics from a PC using a USB cable. This looks promising: http://code.tutsplus.com/tutorials/ios- ... obile-9403

I tried it. I am building the game in Intel XDK and uploading the device. While I am able to collect the necessary data using instrument as in the tutorial , due to lack of sysmbol tables i am not able to make sense of it. Only way would be to build the game in xcode and load the symbols.
