That would give me pause considering I run it without issue on a much slower Mac and have in fact run it on 5-year-old PCs without that issue.

- Tiksi 13y agoWhen you're pushing triple digits of open tabs, it can definitely become an issue. Plus the web interface runs on flash and support isn't great for Linux, even chrome's Pepper version has a ton of issues. edit: Point being that playing an mp3 should never freeze any system built in this millennium, and yet it does. So this is a bit of a workaround to avoid that. Plus with this setup you can enable global media keys/hotkeys and get a lot more control over playing your music.
- nkozyra 13y agoI'm certainly not saying what they have is ideal, so don't take offense on that note. I welcome a native-ish client ala Spotify since I foolishly subscribe to both. But as someone who keeps their open tabs in the double digits (although pushing it sometimes), I've not encountered much playback issue.
- Tiksi 13y agoI haven't run into any issues on my i5 machine, but on a core2duo machine it was many many times a day I had to kill firefox/plugin-container just in time or I'd have to reboot.
- nkozyra 13y agoTo be honest I've only run it in Chrome and it's been pretty happy there on Ubuntu, Windows or OSX.
- vkjv 13y agoTriple digits of tabs? You're the guy with more icons on his desktop than can fit, right?
- Tiksi 13y agoHeh, I actually don't have any icons at all, I just like having everything I need out in front of me so I use awesome window manager and open a bunch of windows with tons of tabs, multitasking at its finest.
