Intermittent UI freeze/hangs across Web, Windows, and Android clients, exacerbated by long chat histories and session reloads

Same here. Multiple computers. Different browsers. Main computer has 256 GB of RAM, and 32 cores. A quick profiling in the developer tools clearly shows the browser it’s stuck in endless layout recalculations and DOM reconciliation. It’s clear there’s no virtualization of the chat. At all. Using React (or any modern framework) makes things worse, way worse. They’re decent for web apps, but not for chat apps. They generate bloated HTML, hook endless events. Not to mention nothing is offloaded to background threats. Android app does a way nicer job. Still, sometimes it also gets problems loading long conversations “Network connection lost. Attempting to reconnect…” when that same chat loads (incredibly slow, freezing the browser for minutes). It’s clear they hadn’t performed even the most elementary stress tests on their apps. Not all of us ask silly things and open a new chat. Long brainstorming sessions, coding, code enhancement, and son on. All requiere long chats, large context. No workaround can replace that.
