[S] Cascade. is incredibly slow and has graphical issues

leo60228 commented 4 years ago

The flash runs at about 2fps, and pins my CPU to 100% utilization. There were also a few graphical issues, but I closed the page about a minute in. I'll be using timestamps from the official YouTube upload for reference.

0:00: [S] Cascade. text is not centered
0:30: Glow around John is not properly rendered, has green specks
0:32: Same issue after scene transition
0:40: Background does not fade to black, instead scrolls downwards
0:45: Blue cloud has green specks
0:48: I stopped watching around here.

The flash is somewhat difficult to obtain due to using a multi-layered loader. It's officially available on Newgrounds. Here's the first of 5 .swfs (the only one I watched) directly: 04109_segment1.swf.zip. I'm on Firefox 73.0.1 from NixOS.

None of these issues occur on the desktop version except for the first, but the audio sounds kinda off? I can't really put my finger on it.

Some issues with gradients rendering off center
Some issues with incorrect artifacts in decoded bitmaps (incorrectly un-premultiplying alpha?)

I noticed a couple others:

0:40: Grist doesn't flash different colors 8:25: Green glow around Jade and related elements doesn't appear 9:01: Kaleidoscoping checkerboard planet 10:12: Fourth wall is too opaque, happens again at 12:52

I have a 55mb single-flash version hosted here. The Flash runs at full speed on Chromium on both Windows and Linux, but does eat up ~6GB of RAM.

Is that site just homestuck.com with Ruffle injected? I was working on a reimplementation of the site at https://github.com/leo60228/htmlstuck.

Pretty much, it's all hosted on GitHub Pages here. I was going to try and get some form of autoplay set up, but right now it's just the latest Ruffle release.

fyi, here are all the segments: 1,2,3,4,5. running them separately shouldn't take up much memory

can confirm all issues mentioned by j-james (current nightly build on windows 10)

omentic commented 3 years ago

I've noticed a performance regression that seems to lead to cascading (heh) failures with the current nightly, that seems to have been introduced sometime between last September and now.

Here is Ruffle (09/04/2020) running [S] Cascade: https://j-james.me/htmlstuck/story/4109

And, here is the current nightly (01/01/2021) running it: https://j-james.me/htmlstuck-devel/story/4109

At least to my observation on my laptop (with 8 gigs of ram), the current Ruffle version consumes enough ram that Ruffle seems to start throwing various errors out, while stalling out the browser window. The September version, while still taking a fair amount of time and ram to load, would play back near-perfectly with very minor visual issues logged to the console.
