Stylo was disabled throughout the session. OK, it's not necessary to forget closed tabs for freedom/minimisation of memory to succeed after unloading closing the tab for Riot. I get a sense that Waterfox performance plummets if I either unload, or close, the tab for Riot. Riot web app is a work in progress, not optimised. It's a mixture of tabs from other groups. For the selected group – University of Brighton – there are too many tabs. On-screen notes that I took during the recording:įireTitle kicking in … no ' - Waterfox' suffix to any title. Generally – throughout the recording: wherever you see me moving the mouse/pointer around in circles, aimlessly, that's usually to indicate that I'm waiting for the browser to respond. Maybe watch from 08:38:36 on the clock (23:00 on the timeline). The last four minutes are probably enough to get an idea of the performance issue. Hint: don't watch the whole thing for fun! It covers a variety of issues. Viewing time: twenty-six minutes (with some acceleration the recording period was longer). – so yep, folks are likely to treat those two things (plus my mix of extensions) as laughable/risky but FWIW the whole caboodle works amazingly well for me (with one notable exception, which is off-topic from Waterfox). my mix of three repos including (bleeding edge) Area 51 is eyebrow-raising.my (bleeding edge) -CURRENT is significantly outdated.Or just close this issue :-) I'll not be if you have any insight I'll be grateful. – you'll probably want me to attempt reproduction of the issue with far fewer extensions. vector-im/riot-web given those two vector-im/riot-web issues, and this long list of enabled extensions:.Riot app unusably slow with Firefox (or Waterfox) in safe mode Memory usage of Riot has increased quite a lot – simple enough, but the minimisation takes some time. I've been paying more attention to this type of behaviour in recent weeks … gut tells me that it's not new behaviour (e.g. However that sense of things is limited to the browser (generally, Plasma feels OK) and from experience with other systems, I doubt that thrashing is a significant factor. The pattern of (mis)behaviour might be more likely to occur if there's some use of the swap device before unload/closure.ĭuring these periods it 'feels' slightly as if there's thrashing of the hard disk drive e.g.
