I must be a virtual user or something.
I have Firefox installed for testing WASM targets, and everything seems slower than usual.
If you open 20+ tabs, the UI seems to be laggy. At some point, I had to kill a tab, the whole browser froze for a while.
- diggan 3y agoI regularly have 100+ tabs open depending on what I'm doing, and killing tabs in groups of 10+ sometimes without any lag. But then I'm on a 5950x CPU + Linux so maybe that plays some role. What hardware are you using?
- fooker 3y agoTwo generations old 8 core i7, 64 gigs of ram, various GPUs interchangeably. Doesn't seem to be a resource issue unless Linux is doing something odd.
- throitallaway 3y ago> the whole browser froze for a while. Are you swapping out? I think a lot of people don't realize how heavy web pages are, often taking up hundreds of MB of RAM (at least) for each tab. I highly recommend the Auto Tab Discard plugin. I'm terrible with leaving tabs around, and tab suspension plugins let me continue that bad habit.
- fooker 3y agoPossible, but unlikely. I just tweaked vm.swappiness, and there's no obvious change.
