Penpot keeps crashing when showing a board or duplicating

Troubleshooting

I can’t continue developing my project because the penpot keeps crashing non-stop and has severe performance issues. I hid most of the boards to try to mitigate the performance issue. Now that I want to show some board, I just get a crash and cannot continue. I’ll have to show my design to the client but that’s impossible as of now.

I cannot paste the whole log because I am a new user here.

Here’s the log:

Yes, this is also happening to me. I need to duplicate a board to work on a mobile version but always crashes. It became impossible to work on.

I think it crashes during the process of saving.

Unfortunately it is not only duplicating a board (with full website design content) that leads to the crashes but doing anything to the board causes a crash as well, such as locking, moving, hiding, grouping, etc.

What I end up doing was creating a new board with the same exact styles and copied ONLY the contents of the original board and pasted it inside the new one. This seems to work as a workaround for now.

I’m also having this issue of Penpot being very laggy, and crashing when I’m trying to duplicate a page or a board

Could you send the file with the issue to support@penpot.app?
