I’ve used the new client for ~24 hours straight. I always monitor the memory usage of certain apps in the Task Manager. When the client is just started it uses approx 250MB with highest process using 110MB, which is pretty normal. But after all that time the client became very laggy and the highest process was using around 700MB of memory. Everything fixed itself after a restart.
There is definitely some optimisation to do (It may be painfully obvious and may not be the highest priority right now, but I figured that’s why I’m a beta tester, right?)
And apart from maybe some other issues I haven’t found yet, the new client is looking pretty sick
Update: I think I have found out what the major reason for lags is.
When I leave group chat window open (like Beta Test which gets pretty active at times) the messages pile up and old messages won’t clear from ram, which then results in a very tiny scrollbar and huge lags.
There was high memory usage a long time ago, but it has been fixed.
I tried many things, but the maximum ram usage was ~300-400MB.
I couldn’t reproduce it.
I think this problem is a 1% problem, I dont know who leaves his client online for 8 days…
The highest I had was 600-700MB and because of that you were online on a server for 8 days & regularly joined users with avatars etc & were in the chat.
On my computer, TS5 has ten times the memory footprint of TS3, and my original reason for using Teamspeak was because of Teamspeak’s light weight. Is making Teamspeak5 a better Discord really a good choice?
