I can confirm having this problem too. Windows 11 Pro - brand new build and OS install. 2.0-dev (edit: both portable and installed version) - edit 2: and actually in 1.9 portable too.. Connecting to Klipper Mainsail

im fine not having webview. don't see an option to turn it off. This is the first im using Orca so maybe there is this option somwhere

So as I said, new install, new OS. Had previously been accessing mainsail via web (brave) on windows 10. Accessing using brave on windows 11 pro also causes CPU spike but when you change view off the tab, its stops its high CPU (unlike orca which keeps using high CPU).

@snkku I was able to workaround the problem by going into the mainsail config/.theme folder (click gears and show hidden files) into the .css file and delete the top section between the comments for the background animation. I don't know if this is a problem with animation with mainsail or if the way it was setup was very unoptimized.

I having this problem too. My setup:

• Windows 11 Pro 23H2, old OS install
• OrcaSlicer 2.0
• Printer running Klipper and Fluidd

PS: I remove the IP address from printer.
