title: iOS Delay between touchstart and touchmove?
body: <p>I'm attempting to convert my web app into a form usable by mobile devices.  I'm attempting to build in support for touch gestures like horizontal scrolling. I'm finding some strange behavior in my app.</p>
  
  <p>I start a gesture with a touchstart event, and then scroll on touchmove.  However, my application sees a 500-700 ms delay between receiving these two events. As far as I can tell, my app is doing no other work between these two events.</p>
  
  <p>Other aspects:
  The code is written in jquery, using </p>
  
  <pre><code>  $(element).bind(touchmove, function(ev) {return myobject.DoTouch(ev) } 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>were the DoTouch command  simply checks the ev.type, records the touch position, and returns false.</p>
  
  <p>Any ideas what I should look for to try to solve this? The lag between touching and getting a response from the app is very annoying.</p>
