Slow render performance #128

Open vidicunt opened 2 years ago

vidicunt commented 2 years ago

Hello!

I'm using this with node.js with the npm package.

The render command is dissapointingly slow... Is there any way to make it faster? I can't make the animations run as I would like to.

I know it's been over a year, but did you ever find a solution to this problem? I've been trying to tackle the same issue.

Edit: I have no clue if this would affect things, but the RAM speed on most Pis is much slower (~200000) than the frequency (800000) we are trying to update the lights at.

I have not found a solution, I switched to using LedFx.
