Hi,

In order to have the StackView display the next  page during the 
transition, it needs to be rendered asap.

Now if the page is too heavy and that incurs a lag I can suggest you to 
defer the creation of the heavy part after the transition is completed. 
To do this, look at the StackViewDelegate getTransition() or 
transitionFinished() method where you can access the entering item with 
properties.enterItem and then send it a signal to the loaded item to 
load the heavy part.

Bruno.
