Apple, please bring back SceneKit.

I've been running my SceneKit game for many weeks in Xcode without performance issues. The game itself is finished, so I thought I could go on with publishing it on the App Store, but when archiving it in Xcode and running the archived app, I noticed that it seriously hangs. The hangs only seem to happen when I run the game in fullscreen mode. I tried disabling game mode, but the hangs still happen. Only when I run in windowed mode the game runs smoothly. Instruments confirms that there are many serious hangs, but it also reports that CPU usage is quite low during those hangs, on average about 15%. From what I know, hangs happen when the main thread is busy, but how can that be when CPU usage is so low, and why does it only happen in fullscreen mode for release builds?

Up to now I have created multiple new SCNNodes using an instance of SCNGeometry and it was OK that they all had the same appearance. Now I want variety and when I make a copy of that instance using: let newGeo = myGeoInstance.copy() as! SCNGeometry (must be force cast because copy() -> any?) all elements are verified present. :-) Likewise: node.geometry?.replaceMaterial(at: index, with: myNewMaterial) is verified to correctly change the material(s) at the correct index(s). The only problem is the modified "teapot" is not visible, and yes I have set node.isHidden = false. Has anyone experienced this? In the old days reversing the verts was a solution. In desperation I tried that. |-(

Any body have the link to the sample code for the “Bring your SceneKit project to RealityKit” session. I can’t see it any where in the Dev sample code pages

I have used SceneKit for several years but recently have a problem where a scene with fewer than 50 nodes is partially drawn, i.e., some nodes are, some aren't, and greater than 50 nodes are always draw correctly. This seems to have happened since concurrency was introduced. (w.r.t. concurrency, I had been using DispatchQueue successfully before then.) Since all nodes (few or many) are constructed and implemented by the same functions etc. I'm baffled. When I print the node hierarchy all nodes are present whether few or many. SceneView() has [.rendersContinually] option selected. Every node created (few or many) has .opacity = 1.0, .isHidden = false I haven't tried setting-back the compiler version as that is not a long term solution, and I know the same code worked fine then.
