GPU and CPU intensive animation on AI Help page and homepage #9347
Comments
Thank you for reporting this performance issue @Juraj-Masiar and sorry for taking so long to respond. Can you tell me what browser(s) (including versions) you experienced the issue with? Are you still having the problem? |
Just a quick update, I've used HWiNFO64 tool to measure "CPU Package Power" when using Firefox: That's pretty bad trade-off for an animation :) |
I should also mention I'm using 165Hz screen so it's probably gonna be less on 60Hz screen (EDIT: nope, just tested, it's still 25W). |
@caugner I'm able to reproduce in MacOS's activity monitor. The change in #8622 reduces the CPU shown in the browser's performance monitor but the OS's activity monitor says the browser process is still pulling some energy. Few things to consider:
So it's not terrible but if this page is going to be active a lot, we may consider removing the animation or changing the way it steps through its loop. Option 1: Make it static (as suggested). |

What specific section or headline is this issue about?
Header
What information was incorrect, unhelpful, or incomplete?
The nice rotating animation has a HUGE power impact on the host PC.
First, the GPU utilization is about 50%!
But what's worse, this is consuming CPU too, which then can't use power-saving 1.X GHz speed, but it's boosting to nearly maximum speed 5.X GHz speed.
What did you expect to see?
Static image would be OK
Do you have any supporting links, references, or citations?
No response
Do you have anything more you want to share?
Same thing applies for the homepage: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/
But unlike homepage, this AI Help page can be potentially opened for a whole day, wasting A LOT of electricity.
