Made the fan in my Windows 11 laptop spin up.

This is why I prefer clunky hardware with heating cpus and a slow disk. You can easily feel that you wrote bad code from audio and tactile feedback.

  • I’ve heard of people doing ambient performance profiling by instrumenting their code to insert clicks into an audio buffer based on a high precision clock and piping it out a speaker. You get to learn the sound of your code at 44.1KHz

Which view/file caused this? v0.2.2 (coming soon) has significant performance optimizations for large files - deferred syntax highlighting, galley caching. If you can reproduce, please open an issue with details!

  • I launched the file, typed:

    >Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their party. >test

    and selected the last and made it bold using the formatting bar.

    • Thanks for the repro steps! This is helpful, formatting bar interaction shouldn't spin up the fan for such a small document. v0.2.2 has some performance improvements and is out, so it might be better, but this specific case might need investigation.
