MERGE function lags

Open mandarinato opened this issue 2 months ago • 1 comments

Auto-Group Tabs Version 0.0.20 Chrome Version Version 143.0.7499.41 (Official Build) (64-bit) Windows 11 Version 25H2 (OS Build 26200.7171)

The what:

The 'MERGE' function lags behind sometimes => it opens a new tab in a new group (as per auto-group configuration) in window 1, then it takes some seconds, then it 'realizes' that this tap group already existed in window 2, then merges. Total lag of some seconds 2 to 10 seconds.

The why:

Apparently Chrome runs a 'Service Worker Dormancy'. The extension is 'put to sleep'. This increases the overhead to manage the MERGE function (the auto-group still works flawlessly and very fast).

The workaround:

Having the 'developer mode' for extension open and the Inspect views service worker window open all the time.

If by any chance you could put a fix to this in the roadmap it would be appreciated.

Hey @mandarinato

I also received your email, sorry for not getting back on this. I had done some research but have not found a lot of information on service worker dormancy...

Maybe someone has some specific pointers how to fix this.

As of recent use with the updated 'Chrome Version Version 143.0.7499.41' this seems to not be happening (maybe solved). I will follow up and if I do not see reoccurrence I will close the issue from my side.
