Not very surprising.

[RonaldK 18]

yes, but after all these years, FMX still doesn't seem to be ready for bigger applications.

It is pretty quirky - even on Windows.

1. After some three years of experimentation and development with FireMonkey, we have come to the conclusion
that it is too slow for the depth of functionality and the type of controls for which we are recognised.

2. We keep on running into functionality roadblocks that require us to write extensions to the base FMX library.

3. We just didn't get the level of interest or feedback from our customers that we were projecting.
