All right, we've been complaining about this forever. How do we fix it? The best thing I can think of, as a developer, is to deliberately use slower computers to test my software. My daily-driver Windows PC is still a quad-core Skylake from 2016, with 16 GB of RAM and a ~500 GB SSD, and I wonder if even that's too much.
- sanitycheck 3y agoAs a developer you can't fix it unless you own the product. Spending time improving performance when you "should" be working on "features" is not looked upon fondly by employers. Companies need to be defining acceptable performance (with metrics) on devices meeting certain specifications at the outset of projects, and failures on those tests need to be treated seriously. Can it really be achieved? Maybe not.
