3 months ago Regarding the multi-reload...
There's a chance that this is related, though its usage seems to be restricted to an operation that should be one-time - I believe it was originally added to detect 'blank keyboard' states we ran into in the past (when loading the keyboard after it was backgrounded) + do a one-time reload to work around them.

Describe the bug
Relates to #1492.
We have quite a number of Sentry reports in which our iOS system keyboard is terminated due to taking too long to initialize. This termination tends to happen in a number of places within the code; after all, it's a externally-based time-triggered termination.
Good point-of-reference report: https://keyman.sentry.io/issues/5518064391/events/ca1f3a0ca13e4c0fb3f3408a3aa9e821/
As can be seen from the linked report above, we sometimes have repeated page-reloading occurring as the system-keyboard is starting up. Using the same Breadcrumbs section -> View All pattern, we can see a number of reloads all triggered within the span of two seconds.
That's eight times that the function below - which triggers when the keyboard host-page finishes loading - was triggered within the span of two seconds:
https://github.com/keymanapp/keyman/blob/402b1964f2c654496b555ceddc858b3d19fc911e/ios/engine/KMEI/KeymanEngine/Classes/Keyboard/KeymanWebViewController.swift#L593-L600
The report above in particular is interesting for an extra reason - it fits a pattern for some of the "overused RAM" reports and even includes a "low memory" event notification in its logs.
Note: not all cases are during the initial load. This one has the same report title, but it's triggered at a distinctly different point within the keyboard lifecycle: https://keyman.sentry.io/issues/5368749989/events/24c32ecb945d4932bc6ecc8451ba6fb2/
