- GekkePrutser 6y ago> Rewriting it in C++ to magically solve problems. Good job, engineer. Well it's a lot easier to make an app perform well in C++ than electron. They should at least have for the VS Code team to help. That's one of the best performing Electron apps, it's strange MS never adopted those practices company wide.
- sroussey 6y agoOr they did, and it has more to do with different things happening on the network layer of individual machines.
- dmix 6y agoSounds like a lot of shit rolling downhill.
- GekkePrutser 6y agoHmm when I compare the two in terms of CPU / Memory usage and speed, Teams is one of the worst performing electron apps on my system, and VS Code one of the best. I don't think this is just network related (and I have a 600/600 connection anyway). Either way, even if this was the reason it would prove that Electron is not a good fit for an app like this.
- bobobob420 6y agoThe issue with teams is performance. Teams is a relatively simple application. C++ is extremely common and well known, would have been a better tool for the job. That’s called engineering when you actually care about the quality of the product.
- sroussey 6y agoCalling that engineering reminds me of things I said while being in college before I had any real experience.
- bobobob420 6y agoWhy? The teams app is an example of poor engineering. I don’t see how you don’t realize this.
