Further to this issue, PencilKit rendering seems to occasionally become completely deadlocked. I've paused the app in Xcode and captured the thread stack trace (see attached). The main thread is waiting on a lock, and the threads associated with PencilKit rendering is likewise waiting at a lock (Thread 55 Queue : com.apple.pencilkit.renderer). I'm hoping this activity might point to something we've done wrong (or an approach to end/mitigate this behaviour). Or possibly point to other diagnostics we could run…
Key parts of the stack trace include:
