Performance improvement

Preflight Checklist

• [X] I have installed the latest version of Storage Explorer.
• [X] I have checked existing resources, including the troubleshooting guide and the release notes.
• [X] I have searched for similar issues.

Problem

I am using Azure Storage Explorer on a machine with only two CPU's and it is really slow. It is great that you have reduced the size of Azure Storage Explorer in 1.22.1, now the next step is to focus on optimization. You can take inspiration from what has been accomplished with Notepad++.

Desired Solution

Azure Storage Explorer should be optimized so it is not so CPU intensive. The developers and testers should try to use it sometimes with a 2 CPU virtual machine. Optimizing the code also has an impact on battery life and energy consumption.

Alternatives and Workarounds

There is no workaround if your hardware is what it is...

@craiha thanks for the feedback. Can you be more specific about what parts of Storage Explorer are slow for you? That would help us target our efforts. Thanks!

Hi,

It seems like most of the actions you do are rather CPU intensive. What is especially slow is when you start Storage Explorer and wait for it to connect to the Storages.

Regards, Carl

I installed the Azure Storage explorer on Mac (OSX 12) on Feb 22, used it for an hour or so and closed it. A couple days later, my fan was running at and everything was super slow, and opening the activity monitor revealed that the ASE renderers were using 100% of my CPU, even after having closed the app several days earlier...

Thanks @jdthorpe , coincidentally we made a change in our most recent version (1.23) which may address what you saw. We'll keep an eye out for that though and if we see it we'll investigate. That is not the type of behavior we want the app to have.
