as a saas founder, I can confirm you are 100% correct about this and we'll be looking at IronCalc for https://www.definite.app/

I have to mention this, when scrolling through the website, as soon as the Lakehouse illustration to the right renders, it degrades the performance on my MBP, the browser even starts to stutter!

Thanks for the feedback, on it!

cool and slick website. reminds me of linear.app but when i attempt to scroll all the way down it lags. i'm on macbook air with chrome browser

I was viewing in Safari on an M1 Max MBP with no lag. Read this and switched to Chrome and confirmed lag when scrolling. Also lagged returning upward.

It was the only page open in Chrome, freshly launched specifically for this test. Safari has a bajillion open windows and tabs. Something about how Chrome handles the page is definitely odd.

Just for fun, I also tested in Firefox, which was already open with fifteen windows, most of which have a handful of tabs. No lag there.

Got it, any chance you could send me the version of Chrome?

This has been tricky to reproduce.

It didn't lag when I loaded and tested just now to grab the version of Chrome: 122.0.6261.129. Presumably, that's because I'd visited earlier. I don't want to reset Chrome to try to repro again.

I did load up Chromium to check it and got the lag there as well: 124.0.6359.0 (Developer Build)

I don't use Chrome almost ever. Maybe my outdated version is why you can't repro.

Version 130.0.6723.92 (Official Build) (arm64)

chrome on a celeron laptop, barely if any lag
