React optimization problems are more than just CPU; React encourages lots of little requests in such a way that no amount of computing power can tackle. Coupled with other flawed but popular design antipatterns like skeleton screens, performances is abysmal. Not just long page loading times but browser and machine freezing slowdowns.
BitBucket and Jira have gotten so much worse since they moved to React. With all my computers resources at its disposal, it takes longer now to load a single jira ticket than it did when it was all handled server side 10 years ago. If you look at the chrome debugger, its no wonder why. React fans can stand back, cross their arms, and explain about how atlassian must be doing it the wrong way, but it seems pretty consistent behavior across many react apps.
