Idea: use web workers for services #18

Open nelsonpecora opened 8 years ago

nelsonpecora commented 8 years ago

controllers talk to the dom
services (for the most part) don't
maybe use web workers for services?
check browser support
check compilation situation

Maybe for some services but not all. I think there might be some edge cases where calling a web worker for some small task might actually hurt performance more than help.

nelsonpecora commented 8 years ago

yep. I think the best use cases are validators (which don't need to talk with the dom) and api calls (the stuff in edit/ though there are some dom things in there right now)
