I'm wondering if many folks on this forum have worked with ESRI Leaflet? Experience? How fast is it compared to using ArcGIS JavaScript API Compact version (ie. download times)? Just wanted to get some ideas before jumping in. I have an app that I'll be converting to a new version, and performance is an issue. So I'm thinking about potentially using Leaflet. Our Spatial query stuff is quite complicated, so do Leaflets have many of the QueryTask concepts? Also, need some pretty advanced Legend stuff theoretically. Oh, and the main thing is that this app runs on all platforms and devices, so it needs to work well in all environments.
Is there a Forum specifically for ESRI Leaflet? I know the product is still in beta, so just curious if such a thing exists?
Thanks for the info.

I use Esri Leaflet and the Esri JavaScript API. I mainly use Esri Leaflet for lighter applications. I have found that when using Esri Leaflet for advanced tasks you sometimes have to employ workarounds. I am a member of the Esri Leaflet group as well. Both Esri Leaflet and the Esri JavaScript API work on all devices, but your best bet is to use responsive web design so that all apps work cleanly on all devices. For what it sounds like you are trying to do, I would go with the Esri JavaScript API. A couple of things that you may want to consider that I do if you need help while developing are the following:
