Causes Large Lag Spikes on Certain Sites

Open starkline opened this issue 5 years ago • 3 comments

Fantastic extension! As an audio engineer, it's great to be able to choose an output device in windows. Thanks!

I've found a very intermittent issue. On certain sites the extension causes large lag. The one site that I can reproduce the issue is Chess.com.

On Chess.com, if you find your way to the "Solve Puzzles" section, the issue should be evident.

Unfortunately, if you don't have a chess.com subscription, you won't be able to play more than a few puzzles. I wish I could provide another example, but it's the only one I've found where I can reliably reproduce the issue.

Rain-Fighters, if you come back to the extension, I hope you can find the time to investigate.

Thanks!

FWIW, I can reproduce this lag spike while browsing Netflix and hovering over titles to play their sample videos. After a handful of attempts, the delay between hovering and expanding, as well as to video playback, grows enormous. A single CPU hangs at full load.

The DevTools console looks like this: image

Lol. So, that's what it was. I was experiencing the same thing with Netflix, but I never took the time to investigate the cause.

That's interesting and I'm able to reproduce it. Not sure yet, why it happens, but I'll take a look ... Edit: Testing a fix. Looks good so far.
