Mavericks energy usage #358

Open mikeyp opened 11 years ago

mikeyp commented 11 years ago

While I'm sure nothing has changed and I love slate as much as ever, I've noticed that it requires High Perf GPU according to the Mavericks energy pane in Activity Monitor.

I don't know if this is just an issue of rebuilding against a new target or if there is more to it than that, but it'd be awesome if slate could be a little bit more battery friendly.

Just noticed that this isn't an issue until I use the grid. Restarting slate and reloading config seems to reset this and it doesn't go back into High Perf GPU until I activate the grid.

I've tried this on my machine and I cannot see this behavior. On the other hand many resize/move operations are dead slow (even if the app is not napping)
