Let me guess, you did a TextField, not a CupertinoTextField? (It's 20% on release for me, still too much for a blinking cursor). Sure there may be some simple pathological bug in that one widget, but this quality issue in a fundamental widget in the official kit just does not give me the warm fuzzies, especially looking over the the github issue tracker.
And yes I am biased because it is google and they hardly dog food this product.
This particular problem is "fixed" by a simple cursorOpacityAnimates: false (which is apparently how they "fixed" TextField). That still doesn't speak well for QA. This is not really a complaint about a single widget. I really really want to like this stuff, but I have no confidence in it as a serious long term product.

Simple CupertinoTextField
Just tried it out. 3-5% in debug build. 0% on release build.
