title: Phonegap app performance vs native app performance
body: <p>we are looking at getting a barcode scanning application built. We are considering using PhoneGap but our only worry is speed.
  All the application will do is just scan a barcode and check a server to see if it's valid or not. The application uses the camera very intensely to scan the barcode via an image. 
  My main question is, will scanning via phonegap be just as fast as a native app? Speed is really important as the user will have to scan multiple barcodes very quickly. </p>
