Out of memory bug - Maintainer needed #34

Closed enkynakamura closed 4 years ago

enkynakamura commented 7 years ago

Hi, after a while i used again this extension and it doesn't work, after few moves (no more then 2-3 usually) it goes out of sync with unplayable moves. I've windows 7 64 bit, chrome version 56.0.2924.76

enkynakamura commented 7 years ago

at chess.com, at lichess after few moves they detect it and ban me, they write on screen "cheat detected"

I took some research and I found that this is my old problem. I wrote core of this extension few years ago when I was not so strong coder and made it as dirty and quick hack extension. Chess.com update their engine and now it takes much more memory than few years later. And now my extension reach out-of-memory error more faster than earlier.

There is two solution of this situation:

  1. I need more time to keep this extension updated and rewrite it in more memory-safe manner. But now I'm working 7 days a week and have no time to do this. OR
  2. Find a new maintainer who will update this extension often then I can.

That's only one way. I promise that when I will have time - I rewrite it by myself but now I can recommend you to play at old chess.com site - it's more compatible with this out-of-support extension.

Thanks, Mike.
