- sgt 6y agoI think it's extra slow in Safari, for some reason. Just like Google Maps is also slower in Safari than in Chrome. However, overall I would say Safari is the fastest browser out there, based on my own browsing habits. Also most memory efficient.
- harrygeez 6y agoI've personally experienced this many times using Safari. Pages that take up a lot of memory just straight up freeze and start chugging.
- nwienert 6y agoI have a feeling this may be React related. Safari is on average far, far faster on any site. But I have a larger React site that slows down quite a bit more than Chrome. Perhaps related to the const+let vs var bug the other day.
- swyx 6y agounlikely - any production build of React would transpile down to var for IE support
- xenospn 6y agoI usually get the “this page is using too much memory” warning repeatedly using safari. And apparently there’s no way to make it go away, which is super annoying.
- sgt 6y agoCome to think of it, even Google Calendar does this if you leave the tab open in Safari for more than a day. Is this Safari's fault or Google?
- edoceo 6y agoHeavy JS apps (eg:React) have all had perf issues on my Safari. Not just FB, anyone using React has cause this issue on my machine. Chrome and FF also using more resources for Heavy JS (not as much as Safari) but maybe they just have better engines. I loathe the over-js'd web.
- heavyset_go 6y agoReact apps are generally slow in Firefox, as well.
