surely the more the client can do, the better.
Their machine is already on and idle, by pushing processing onto the backend your just creating a provisioning issue where either under or over provisioning is a waste of people's time or resource.
- loudmax 8y agoIf the client device is a desktop computer, sure. Typically, the client is a mobile device whose bandwidth and energy are precious commodities. In these cases, better for the server to do the heavy lifting.
- timw4mail 8y agoNo. If I want to use an old computer I shouldn't have to wait forever for content because someone thought the client should do the work. That's a bigger waste of my time than your server capacity issues.
