Additional Information

Same chats in browser work perfectly fast

@indeyets There might still be an outstanding bug, where if you hover over the textbox while typing, typing is slower. Does moving the mouse cursor help?

If not, can you reproduce the same issue on community.mattermost.com?

indeyets commented 1 year ago

@devinbinnie yes, I can reproduce it on community server too

and, no, I don't feel that mouse hovering does any difference

cadavre commented 1 year ago

I can confirm this behavior. But actually this is happening for a long time now, yet with each another version things are getting slower and slower.

macOS Ventura 13.3.1 Intel with various Mattermost servers and versions

This is definitely something about Mattermost Desktop and very often Mattermost Helper (Renderer) takes 200% CPU. Things are getting worse when I open a file (ie. PDF or PNG) sent via message.

I can confirm using the same servers with browser does work much faster.
