The editor makes heavy use of CPU #235

Open animanoir opened 8 years ago

animanoir commented 8 years ago

When I have an open instance of the p5.js official editor, it suddenly seems to make the CPU work harder, including the fan (which is the most noticeable part).

When I close it, almost immediately the fan goes to normal.

I have the same issue. Probably caused by something related to nwjs ?

flowen commented 8 years ago

same here, when I check activity monitor I see it's at 100%.

So: Mac (latest version), not sure what it causes or how to find the cause

It looks like this nwjs Helper issue, which should be fixed in a more recent version of Node-webkit. @lmccart Is this on your radar? https://github.com/nwjs/nw.js/issues/2372

One thing I've noticed... the fan only spins up if there's more than one project open. It seems more likely to happen on a dual monitor setup, too. I don't think I've ever had it happen with a single project open while on just my laptop monitor.

I can confirm that I had it with a single project and no extra monitor
