Ghetto Skype works slower and slower, needs to be restarted at least every hour #165

Ghetto Skype works slower and slower, needs to be restarted at least every hour. In the end it's almost impossible to type anything or even scroll. The issue was introduced by Skype Web re-design (which required this fix in Ghetto Skype: https://github.com/stanfieldr/ghetto-skype/commit/5bb87dfa434c97417de1ef3153db2cd34cbf24f4 ).

My Ghetto Skype version uses electron 1.8.8 instead of 1.8.4 (it didn't build with 1.8.4, couldn't resolve and download all dependencies):


   "devDependencies": {
-    "electron": "^1.8.4",
-    "electron-builder": "^20.5.1"
+    "electron": "^1.8.8",
+    "electron-builder": "^20.38.5"
   }

It's 32 bit ( node_modules/.bin/build -l tar.gz --ia32 ).

I also tried to use electron 6-something some time ago. But the issue was still there. Maybe it's related to nodejs version. Can anyone else confirm this issue?
