[COMPATIBILITY] 🐛 Performance Monitor Plugin Incompatible with New Architecture React Native / Turborepo

[mcayuelas-ledger]

🧠 Problem Description

The @rozenite/performance-monitor-plugin is not compatible with New Architecture React Native and Turborepo, while other Rozenite plugins work correctly in these environments.

---

🔍 Root Cause

The Performance Monitor plugin depends on the react-native-performance library, which:

1. 🧩 Uses the legacy native module system (not compatible with TurboModules)
2. 🔗 Relies on Bridge APIs (not adapted for the Fabric renderer)
3. ⚙️ Includes native dependencies that are not updated for New Architecture

---

🧪 Technical Details

Current Implementation:

// packages/performance-monitor-plugin/src/react-native/performance-monitor.ts
import performance, {
  EntryType,
  PerformanceEntry,
  PerformanceObserver,
} from 'react-native-performance';

Issues Identified:

• react-native-performance uses the old Bridge system
• PerformanceObserver APIs are not compatible with TurboModules
• Native module linking fails in Turborepo monorepo setups

⚖️ Comparison with Working Plugins

Plugin	Compatibility	Implementation Type
✅ @rozenite/network-activity-plugin	Works	Pure JavaScript interceptors
✅ @rozenite/mmkv-plugin	Works	New Architecture compatible MMKV
✅ @rozenite/react-navigation-plugin	Works	Pure React APIs
✅ @rozenite/redux-devtools-plugin	Works	JS-only implementation
❌ @rozenite/performance-monitor-plugin	Fails	Depends on react-native-performance

---

✅ Expected Behavior

All Rozenite plugins should work consistently across:

• ✅ Old Architecture React Native
• ✅ New Architecture React Native
• ✅ Turborepo monorepos
• ✅ Metro bundler
• ✅ Re.Pack bundler

---

❌ Current Behavior

Performance Monitor plugin fails to initialize or function properly in:

• ❌ New Architecture React Native projects
• ❌ Turborepo monorepo setups
• ❌ Projects with newArchEnabled=true

🌍 Environment

Key	Value
Rozenite Version	1.0.0-alpha.15
React Native Version	0.77+
New Architecture	Enabled (newArchEnabled=true)
Turborepo	Latest
Platforms	Android / iOS

📎 Additional Context

This issue affects users migrating to React Native New Architecture, which becomes default starting from React Native 0.76+.
The Performance Monitor plugin is currently the only Rozenite plugin with a compatibility issue.

Hi @mcayuelas-ledger 👋
The playground app in the repository is powered by the New Architecture and, as you can see, it works just fine with all the plugins installed. What exactly is the problem on your side? Could you share some error logs?
