When im using cetus on a online multiplayer game my game speed decreases significantly speed hack is disabled. This happens just by having the extension installed and opening the site, in this case 1v1.lol

Hi @Absurv69

This is a consequence of the fact that Cetus does a lot of modifications to WASM binaries to make watchpoints function. Unfortunately, this can have a negative effect on performance. Another user made an interesting suggestions in #58 about improving performance when watchpoints are not required. It's difficult to speed up the performance of watchpoints as is though. Sorry about that!

Ah okay, thanks though.

You should now be able to use Cetus without slowdown by setting the Enable Watchpoints option to None from the extension options. This will disable watchpoints as a functionality but the slowdown should stop.
