- imtringued 8y agoThat would be perfectly okay if the electron developers cared even just a little bit about memory consumption. Last time I checked there were major memory leak issues related to caching (contrary to popular belief caching things that are never accessed again doesn't increase performance).
- pjmlp 8y agoI surely don't need Electron and plan to only use it on the few cases where I don't really have an option, where a proper Web app or an actual native application aren't available as alternative.
