sweepstakes Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 First off, I don't intend any disrespect whatsoever. But this site loads very slowly for me, and it is crushing my computer. It's borderline unuseable on my main machine (which granted is a pretty old MacBook). Is there any way some of the bells and whistles could be turned down a bit to improve performance? E.g. the Aphex badger background, the CSS blurring fx, the header animation, the div opacity, etc? It seems pretty slow regardless of what page I'm on, so there might be something constant, shared between all pages that's slowing things down. I would investigate further myself but it's so slow on my computer I fear that opening the debugger will crash Chrome. Thanks and please don't ban me. Just want to make a good thing better <3 Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/87246-this-site-loads-slowly/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joyrex Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 Buy a better computer. Change the theme - I would recommend "WATMM Classic" either the regular or fluid-width versions Try a different browser - are you using Safari (and is it the current version, or 5 or less (since you have an old MacBook)?

pizza Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 it's a 2014 Macbook Air, and it's Safari current version. I don't really care tho, it's not my main computer (my desktop handles watmm just fine) Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide pizza's signature Hide all signatures Dr. Oetker (it's pronounced AW-TEK-ER) IDM spokesperson. http://www.youtubemultiplier.com/589f74646d7b2-pizzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzza-with-fork.php Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/87246-this-site-loads-slowly/#findComment-2311786 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really care tho, it's not my main computer (my desktop handles watmm just fine) That's odd - I load up WATMM on a 2011 MacBook Pro, and don't experience any of that... Then again, I don't use Safari.

zkom Posted April 17, 2015 Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 Me and my mates used to write simple 3D raytracers and fractal renderers for TI-85. So many used batteries from rendering mandelbrots for hours.. Called our group the Texas Rangers. Oh, to be young again.. I still have my TI-85 and TI-92, which is HUGE.
