Slow performance when adding images

Troubleshooting
1

Is it only me?
While using Penpot on Chromium and adding image to layout (1000x1000px) the performance drops to the point where working further is impossible (unless I delete image). Is this a bug, or do I need to tweak something?

PC specs

SYS: Win 10 x64
RAM: 12 GB
GPU: GTX 660 (2GB VRAM)
CPU: Intel i5 4670K

Used browsers:

  • Firefox
  • Chromium
  • Desktop app

Notes:

  • The browsers work in perma-incognito mode. I don’t want to store cookies, browser history .etc. It slows down my pc.
  • I checked in browsers to use hardware acceleration
  • Extensions used in browsers (uBlock Origin, Imagus, h264ify, FireShot, DarkReader

Cheers,
Adrian

Hey, I also experience lagging and memory issues on my side using Firefox and chromium for some complex layouts.
I thought it was only due to my laptop limited 8GB RAM but maybe there’s more to explain it?
