FYI you have some rogue script or something on the page that brings my pretty hefty windows 10 pc to a halt. It spikes my CPU to 100% and the page is in like 1F

FYI you have some rogue script or something on the page that brings my pretty hefty windows 10 pc to a halt. It spikes my CPU to 100% and the page is in like 1FPS. I think it's your countdown thing for pricing. Something is def up with it, you may want to disable that temp.

Same thing here. After scrolling about halfway through the page, fans went off and the whole site came to a crawl. Could also be the globe animation.

  Ahh yes I believe it's the globe animation, it uses a very simple stripped down version of webgl & threejs (based on the lib: https://cobe.vercel.app/ https://cobe.vercel.app/) Gonna think about how I can optimize that further! Thanks for the headsup y'all!

    you could render a mp4 or webm video, it wouldn't be as fancy but would just work

    You know, if you put your paging file into your Google Drive, Dropbox, etc., you're effectively downloading more RAM.

      I wanted to add to this, but the edit window has ended so... To go even further, if you have gigabit internet and the data center that hosts your drive is in the same city as you, then putting your swap in cloud storage could potentially be faster than storing it on a hard drive! Obviously, this is making a lot of assumptions, like your ISP doesn't do any silly routing (I'm in Portland, and for a while a couple years ago, my ISP routed all my traffic through Seattle), assumes the cloud storage provider is using solid state storage, and all the code involved in retrieving it doesn't add more than a couple ms of latency.

        I wonder what we'd need to store data 'in transit'. There's a delay with data reaching a location, so why can't we send data to ourselves around the globe and when it gets to us, send it around again.. just around and around.

  I'd guess it's the rotating globe canvas animation showing real-time stats.

    Yeahhhh...I recently merged a PR that should fix this though! let me know if it's still performing badly! https://github.com/steven-tey/dub/pull/13 https://github.com/steven-tey/dub/pull/13

Same here too.... 8% CPU and 95-100% GPU usage (Firefox, latest version/patch)

Chiming in - brought down my Chrome tab on a Ryzen 3600x. All for a page to display pricing. I don't get it.

I was doing "native compile" of several hundred el scripts for emacs and my computer was fine, clicked on that page and everything started taking a couple seconds to click afterwards lol. Definitely something up with the javascript on there.

Yep. Brought my 16GB Macbook Pro to a halt.

  Sorry, if you want to see the spinning globe, you'll need an M1.

Maybe it's the 3D sphere

I think it literally killed my M1 MBP during a meeting this morning (had a few tabs and a zoom meeting running). My screen went black and everything locked. I had to hold down the power button to reboot.

  How can a single, unprivileged process in an multi-task OS cause such effect?
  - steventey 4y ago
    I believe it's something to do with the canvas size not being optimized: https://github.com/steven-tey/dub/issues/11#issue-1382789740 https://github.com/steven-tey/dub/issues/11#issue-1382789740 I just merged a PR to fix this though – are you still facing this issue?

Hey everyone! My good friend & colleague Shu just pushed a PR that should mitigate this: https://github.com/steven-tey/dub/pull/13 https://github.com/steven-tey/dub/pull/13 Can y'all check again and let me know if the performance issue is still bad? Feel free to reply here or send me an email at steven[at]dub.sh FYI Shu (https://github.com/shuding https://github.com/shuding) is the creator of the globe library that I'm using on the home page: https://cobe.vercel.app https://cobe.vercel.app, it's really good!

I genuinely thought it was my graphic driver glitch that for a second all my screens went dark. Not until I read your comment here did I realise they were connected.
