love Wormhole, but that animated background chews up an incredible amount of battery power on my M1 Macbook Air (even when the tab is in the background).
Please wormhole crew, turn it off.
- Intel integrated graphics: 60% reduction
- AMD Radeon: 40% reduction
- Apple M1: 10% reduction
What was the change? We removed "opacity: 85%" from the <canvas> element. We were using opacity to slightly darken the animation but now we just darken the texture image directly.
GPU utilization when window is full screen, 4K resolution:
Chrome:
- Radeon: 70% -> 15%
- M1: 65% -> 29%
- Radeon: 60% -> 8%
- M1: 55% -> 23%
- 15% Radeon + 75% Intel -> 8% Radeon + 8% Intel
- M1: 75% -> 35%
So we reduce the frame-rate when the wormhole is not warping (render every 3rd frame). We also lower the resolution and scale it up.
I really don't get the reasoning. It looks kind of cool, but it makes it super unusable for a bunch of use cases from very old computers to interactive sessions on raspberry pis to constrained VMs. And those are exactly the kind of places where I want friendly easy tools to copy files across for quick system admin or to get logs back out! Doesn't seem like a good tradeoff.

File/s can be grabbed with curl/get etc or a browser
What OS, browser, and connection type/speed did you use?
I don't mind for the upload to be slow, I just let it run, but getting to the page should not be.
I mean, this galaxy.jpg file is a third of you webpack JS bundle size!
It has no added value for me. I get the cool factor, I know it's pretty, but still.
