Mission preview speed slowing down

Ctdlg

Hello,

Mission preview is a great tool. I use it on my computer (archlinux)

If I do several adjustments/missions previews, then playback slows down, even at x4 speed.

The more I adjust, moving from edit to preview pages, the slower the preview becomes ! it lags more and more.

To get playback speed normal, I must close my web browser (Firefox), reopen it, reopen the mission. This means cleaning the cache does not help.

My Pc specifications : I9  10th generation, 32 Gb ram, nvme 1tb ssd, RTX 2060 super, 850 Watts Power supply.

I cannot use my dronelink account (the one I fly with dronelink) on this community forum (Ctdlg). I used Ctdlg before buying Dronelink app as I wanted some informations.
I used another email to register to Dronelink app.

Do I have to create a new account here with my flying account (email/password) ?

    it lags more and more

    This is due to the browser not efficiently cleaning up the JavaScript memory space. The only work-around is to periodically just reload the page, or use a different browser vendor (but they all suffer eventually).

    Yes

    It's interesting that generating previews on mobile (tested iOS)  is significantly faster than on PC using Chrome Browser. I mean that's a good thing on mobile, but can't understand why it's slower on PC/Mac computers. 

    Can't anything be done to bring the same experience to the desktop? Is it a resolution/scaling issue... if so why can't that be offloaded to the edge/user device?

    Browser performance depends on the browser software vendor, and how much effort they have put in to optimizing speed on a given platform.
