OIbfuscated code runs a lot slower

[morphx666]

Describe the bug:

When using the obfuscated code, the browser runs considerably slower.

Windows Task Manager reports Firefox consuming over 17% CPU and Chrome over 12%. When running the un-obfuscated version, both Firefox and Chrome utilize less than 2% CPU

Config and Small code sample

Config:

{
    target: "browser",
    preset: "medium",
    minify: true
}

The code is a bit large to share here, but you can compare both versions using these links:

• Un-obfuscated: https://oyelaradio.com/player/
• Obfuscated: https://oyelaradio.com/player?force-obfuscated

Expected behavior

I was hoping the obfuscated code to run slower... but not like x8 times slower.

Is there something I can do to improve the performance of the obfuscated code? Perhaps I'm doing something obviously wrong?
