I have not too big test project.  
When I scale it up and down, editor start thinking too long and the scaling process start be laggy, freezing.

Was some small amount of time, when lags dissappeared(less than a minute), but all another time it lags.

Using chrome on macbook ait m1 16ram.  
Try on self-hosted and web app.

What that could be?  
Do somebody face with that? How to fix that?  
Because it`s not usable
