Mac, 8.0.3494, i7 2.6Ghz MacBook Pro.
My video surveillance system sends email with photos that are quite big, 4000x3000 to be exact.
em Client takes up to 200% CPU when building the preview window, and even after finishing downloading and displaying them, when I scroll inside the preview, the fan goes on and em client eats up up to 200% CPU capacity. The scrolling, of course, is no scrolling, rather jumping. It is nearly unusable.
Wouldn’t have thought that decoding a JPEG is such a CPU intensive task in 2021, let alone scrolling a readily rendered window area. Is em Client written in perl or javascript?
Seriously, I wouldn’t know how to make this simple task that slow. Please do something about this, this slowness is a royal killjoy.
