Major performance and battery life issues with 2.3.0-beta1 #799

Open Kev1000000 opened 1 month ago

Kev1000000 commented 1 month ago

Describe the bug
Using 2.3.0-beta 1 and a Dashbaord using popups, my device gets very warm and drains battery life when using the new bubble-card-based Dashboard.

To Reproduce
Simply use the Dashboard that is driven by bubble cards.

Expected behavior
The device to perform as well as non-bubble-card dashboards.

Informations (please complete the following information):

Additional context
I have only begun using bubble card starting with 2.3.0-beta 1, so I cannot determine if this just started or has always been the case. My device is a Samsung S23.

Thank you! 🍻

Hi, there is a known performance issue in the editor that I need to fix, but beside that I have a very complex full Bubble Card dashboard that runs perfectly on an old iPad.

Can you take a look at your browser console on your computer to see if there is some errors?

Kev1000000 commented 1 month ago

I did have a few errors in the console from old cards I had installed. Removed those and have not seen any performance improvements. Interestingly, I cannot get the blur to disable at all, regardless of choosing to hide backdrop, blur to 0, etc. Trying to see if removing the blur would help.

You need to disable it on your first pop-up, then you need to refresh your page.

Kev1000000 commented 1 month ago

Ahh, OK, that worked! Performance does seem to have improved with no blur and no bg, will continue to test.

Hi, I've worked on this issue in the new beta, can you tell me if it's better now?

Unfortuantely, the high GPU and stuttering still exists on beta 2.

Here is a CPU/GPU graph while using my dashboard. On a dashboard that includes a bubble card popup, by GPU hovers around 15% even when no popup is enabled. When I do pop up a bubble card, even when it isn't animating (which you can see in the thermostat popup), my GPU spikes to 50%+

Dashboards that don't have popups fall to <= 5% GPU usage even when navigating in/out of them.

Thank you for the detailed feedback! Bubble Card use some advanced CSS styling, like the blurred background that you can see behind of the pop-ups, I've seen that you have disabled the backdrop blur, this is a good start. But have you tried to set the pop-up blur to 0 in the editor?

I will also take a look to understand why there is a spike when no pop-ups are shown.

Kev1000000 commented 1 month ago

Yep! The popup blur is set to 0 for all popups in the editor.

Clooos commented 1 month ago

Thanks for the details, I will take a look 👌

Kev1000000 commented 1 month ago

You're a champion, thank you!

Clooos commented 1 month ago

One more thing, can you check your browser console to see if there are errors? I don't think so but just to be sure.

Just wanted to let you know that beta4 seems to have resolved my stuttering and performance drops with bubble card! Thank you!

You can't imagine how happy I'm to read that!
